What is Anything Goes The Musical about?

Bon Voyage! It’s all hands on deck for the crew on the S.S. American, who are in for some rough seas. Kiss all smooth sailing goodbye. Etiquette is cast away through the portholes as two unlikely duos set sail to find the right course to true romance. Taking destiny by the helms, they soon find that their journey could use a little help from singing and dancing sailors, farcical blackmail, a hilarious disguise, wonderful double-entendres, and some timeless good fun.

Anything Goes musical production history

Offering gold-plated escapism and pure joy since 1934 when it premiered on Broadway, Anything Goes never ceases to captivate audiences. The production first transferred to the West End in 1935 and has been revived a number of times, including in 1987 and 2011 (Broadway) and in 1989 and 2002/2003 (West End). It is also noted for going on tour in the US in 2012 and in the UK in 2015.

Anything Goes has won 6 Tony Awards including for Best Revival, 8 Drama Desk Awards, the 2002 Laurence Olivier Award for Outstanding Musical Production, and a 2012 Grammy Award nomination for Best Musical Show Album.

Kathleen Marshall’s previous production of Anything Goes is set to hit the high seas again in a stunning new production that crossed the Atlantic originally in 2021.
