Anything Goes at Moonlight Amphitheatre

Set sail on the S.S. American and get ready for a voyage of shipboard shenanigans, fabulous Cole Porter music, and dazzling tap dance numbers. On board ship are a gangster on the run posing as a minister, a nightclub singer and her four dancing “Angels,” a society Miss who is engaged to a stuffy Englishman along with her ex-boyfriend who stows on board to try and win her back. A series of comical mistaken identities ensues as the passengers and crew sing and dance their way across the Atlantic to such fantastic tunes as “I Get a Kick Out of You,” “You’re the Top,” “It’s De-lovely,” and “Blow Gabriel, Blow” among others. Anything Goes is one of musical theatre’s most endearing pieces and was first presented on Broadway in 1934. It has gone on to become a musical theatre staple and is enjoying a Broadway revival. Moonlight is one of the few theatres outside of New York to be given the rights to present the show.
