Showcasing Cole Porter's signature wit and masterful composition, Roundabout Theatre Company's Tony-winning production of Anything Goes features beloved songs such as "I Get a Kick Out of You" and "You're the Top." This timeless tale of boy-meets-girl and the resulting roller coaster ride centers on Billy Crocker, who falls hopelessly in love with a wealthy heiress. When he sees her boarding a boat to London, he throws caution to the wind and becomes a stowaway. Madcap hijinks ensue when his fellow passengers, including the evangelist-turned-nightclub-singer Reno Sweeney and second-rate gangster Moonface Martin, decide to help Billy win his true love.

view more less of this reviewHo Hum - just like the movie - which leaves no surprises - and the music is so-so. Very creative sets and I loved how a "live" Dolly parton started the play off.
star this review starred report as inappropriateI loved this show! It stayed true to the actual movie, and the classic "one liners" were still all in there. Also, there were many humorous moments added in. The music was great. Yeah, it was different than what we were used to, but if it were what we were used to all of the time, wouldn't we get bored? Exactly. You have to go see this show. Especially if you are a true fan of the movie. Loved It!
star this review starred report as inappropriateWe were disappointed with some of the additions. Thought it would have been long enough just sticking with the movie. Did like the addition of the added screen with Dolly but some of the humor didn't make the mark.
star this review starred report as inappropriateWhile I like Dolly Parton and her music, I thought the show was just bland at best. There was only one number that stood out with the vocals. The siging was difficult to hear over the music.
