All aboard for high-seas hilarity! Anything Goes (2022 Revision) is a buoyant and brassy musical comedy packed with romance, mistaken identities, and over-the-top antics on the S.S. American. With music and lyrics by Cole Porter, this dazzling show delivers timeless tunes like “Anything Goes,” “You’re the Top,” and “I Get a Kick Out of You.” As love triangles, disguises, and a dash of old-fashioned mischief collide, this toe-tapping classic will have you cheering for true love, laughing at the hijinks, and tapping along from beginning to end.

Anything Goes premiered on Broadway on November 21, 1934 at the Alvin Theatre, where it ran for 420 performances, becoming the fourth longest-running musical of the 1930s. A revised version of the show opened off-Broadway at the Orpheum Theatre on May 15, 1962, starring Eileen Rodgers as Reno Sweeney and Hal Linden as Billy Crocker. In 1987, Lincoln Center Theater produced an updated version of the show. Opening at Broadway’s Vivian Beaumont Theater on October 19, 1987, the show starred Patti LuPone, Howard McGillin and Bill McCutcheon, won the Tony Award for Best Revival, and played for 784 performances. In 2011, the Beaumont version was revived at the Stephen Sondheim Theatre on Broadway, starring Sutton Foster and Joel Grey. Once again, Anything Goes won the Tony for Best Musical Revival, and the production ran for 521 performances.
