ANYTHING GOES to Open at The Theatre Group at SBCC's Garvin Theatre
The Cole Porter classic musical runs for several weeks at the Santa Barbara City College venue.
The Theatre Group at SBCC will open the 26/27 season with the joyful musical ANYTHING GOES. July 10-25, 2026 in the Garvin Theatre, music and lyrics by Cole Porter, original book by P.G. Wodehouse & Guy Bolton and Howard Lindsay & Russel Crouse, new book by Timothy Crouse & John Weidman. Directed by Katie Laris, Musical Direction by David Potter and Choreography by Michele Spears.
All aboard for one of the most beloved musicals of all time where a love-sick stowaway faces a host of obstacles on the race to romance. A crew of sailors, chorus girls, millionaires, a preacher in tap shoes and public enemy number 13 all pitch in to help him and prove that true love is just one dance step away. It’s delightful, delicious and de-lovely! Featuring classic Cole Porter songs such as I Get A Kick Out Of You, Blow Gabriel Blow and You’re The Top.
Anything Goes will feature: Kaitlyn Diffenderfer, Austin Escamilla, Fred Hunter, Sam Malone, Tamara Norton, Van Riker, Tiffany Story, Matt Talbott, Samuel Truax, Atalia Zahrndt and an ensemble of 22 talented singers and dancers.
