About Anything Goes - Lichfield Operatic Society
Music, dance, laughs and the age-old tale of boy meets girl... Anything Goes is delightful, delicious and de-lovely! With music and lyrics by Cole Porter, this classic musical features heart-warming romance, show-stopping dance routines and the most joyful, uplifting score, including the iconic ‘I Get A Kick Out of You', ‘You’re the Top', ‘Blow, Gabriel, Blow' and of course, the tap dancing spectacle that is ‘Anything Goes'.
A hilarious shipboard romp, Anything Goes is set aboard the ocean liner S.S. American, where nightclub singer/evangelist Reno Sweeney is en route from New York to England. Her pal Billy Crocker has stowed away to be near his love, Hope Harcourt, but the problem is Hope is engaged. Joining this on-board love triangle on the luxury liner is a second-rate conman named Moonface Martin (Public Enemy #13). With the help of elaborate disguises and tap-dancing sailors, Reno and Martin join forces to help Billy in his quest to win Hope’s heart.
