ANYTHING GOES Begins at CTG's Ahmanson Theatre Tonight

Rachel York stars in "Anything Goes" with Music and Lyrics by Cole Porter, Original book by P.G.

The show is directed and choreographed by Kathleen Marshall.

In "Anything Goes," when the S.S. American heads out to sea, etiquette and convention head out the portholes as two unlikely pairs set a 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.
