Anything Goes (1962 revival)
Choose options
The highly successful, long-running 1962 Off-Broadway revival of Cole Porter’s 'Anything Goes' re-established the commercial power of the property at the historic Orpheum Theatre. Featuring a freshly streamlined book adaptation by Guy Bolton that consolidated the best comedic subplots of the 1930s original script, the production proved the enduring, cross-generational magic of Porter's high-seas musical catalog. Directed by Lawrence Kasha, the intimate revival achieved immense cultural profile due to its exceptional ensemble casting, starring Hal Linden as a dashing Billy Crocker alongside Eileen Rodgers’ vocally virtuosic Reno Sweeney.
