Barter Theatre's ANYTHING GOES Begins Tonight
The main musical event in Barter's spring repertory will open just in time for Valentine's Day! Cole Porter's first-class musical comedy, "Anything Goes" begins at Barter Theatre tonight, February 14th.
Come aboard the S.S. American. Nightclub singer Reno Sweeney is en route from New York to England, and her pal Billy Crocker has stowed away to be near his love, Hope Harcourt. The problem, Hope is engaged to the wealthy Lord Evelyn Oakleigh. This story of two unlikely pairs on the course to true love proves that sometimes destiny needs a little help from some unlikely aids to find true love. The characters' madcap antics have everyone tossing etiquette and convention out the portholes!
Directed by Richard Rose, Barter's big musical featuring some of the greatest music written for the stage including: "I Get A Kick Out Of You," "You're The Top," and the title song, "Anything Goes"! You might even find yourself singing along!
Lee Harris ("LES MISERABLES;" "Kiss Me, Kate") serves as musical director, and audiences should prepare for the costumes and choreography that Amanda Aldridge ("The Wizard of Oz," "My Fair Lady") has become known for as she pulls out all the stops on the high seas!
Featuring the talents of Barter's Resident Acting Company members Sean Maximo Campos, Nick Koesters, and Holly Williams, as well as Barter alum Emelie Faith Thompson as Reno, Barter has cast 19 singers and dancers to bring the story to life onstage for the first-time ever.
This is your chance to hop aboard the S.S. American and sail away! For best ticket prices, Barter Season PassBooks are on sale through April 1st. Tickets for "Anything Goes" are $23 (Tuesday nights), $33, $37 and $39. For tickets and additional information call (276) 628-3991 or visit bartertheatre.com.
