Roundabout Theatre Company (Todd Haimes, Artistic Director) presents the 2011 Tony Award winning Anything Goes, starring Stephanie J. Block as "Reno Sweeney" and Tony and Academy Award winner Joel Grey as "Moonface Martin," directed & choreographed by 2011 Tony Award winner Kathleen Marshall.

Anything Goes is playing its final 7-weeks of performances on Broadway at the Stephen Sondheim Theatre (124 West 43rd Street). The limited engagement must close on August 5th.

Music & lyrics by Cole Porter; original book by P.G. Wodehouse & Guy Bolton and Howard Lindsay & Russel Crouse; New book by Timothy Crouse and John Weidman.

The creative team includes Bill Elliott (Additional Orchestrations), Rob Fisher (Musical Director) and David Chase (Dance Arranger). The design team includes Derek McLane (Sets), Martin Pakledinaz (Costumes), Peter Kaczorowski (Lights) and Brian Ronan (Sound).

When the S.S. American heads out to sea, etiquette and convention head out the portholes as two unlikely pairs set off on the course to true love… proving that sometimes destiny needs a little help from a crew of singing sailors, an exotic disguise and some good old-fashioned blackmail. Peppering this hilariously bumpy ride are some of musical theater's most memorable standards, including "You're the Top," "Blow, Gabriel, Blow," "It's De-Lovely," "I Get A Kick Out of You," and "Anything Goes."

Roundabout Theatre Company also presents the national tour of ANYTHING GOES. The musical sets sail at Cleveland's Playhouse Square in October 2012. Following its opening in Cleveland, Roundabout Theatre Company's ANYTHING GOES will cruise into more than 25 other cities during the 2012/2013 season including the Ahmanson Theatre in Los Angeles. Additional cities and casting will be announced in the coming months. For more information, please visit www.anythinggoesonbroadway.com.

Ghostlight Records has released the new Broadway cast recording of Roundabout Theatre Company's Anything Goes. The cast album received a 2012 Grammy Nomination in the category of Best Musical Theatre Album.
