Anything Goes, a show of pure urbane joy that pokes gentle fun at society swells, has proven to be highly adaptable to any era, as it currently enjoys a smash revival on Broadway with Tony® Award-winner Sutton Foster.  Anything Goes is chock full of Cole Porter’s greatest hits, including “I Get A Kick Out of You,” “You’re The Top,” “It’s DeLovely” and “Friendship.”

The title song, which closes the first act, showcases the cast in a rousing tap number.  As Broadway director/choreographer Kathleen Marshall put it, “Tap dancing is so joyous, so uplifting, so exhilarating.  It takes the audience along for a ride.”
