Lynn University Drama - Anything Goes
ANYTHING GOES (2022 REVISION)
The 2022 revision of Anything Goes is a refreshed version of Cole Porter’s classic musical comedy. This update preserves the show’s beloved songs—like “I Get a Kick Out of You,” “You're the Top,” and the title number “Anything Goes”—while modernizing the book with sharper pacing and streamlined dialogue. Set aboard an ocean liner bound for London, the story follows nightclub singer Reno Sweeney, stowaway Billy Crocker, and a colorful cast of characters as they get tangled in romantic and comedic misadventures. The 2022 revision emphasizes high-energy choreography, dazzling tap numbers, and a vibrant tone that delights contemporary audiences.
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 Adam Simpson
