Synopsis:
When this ship heads out to sea, convention heads out the portholes as two unlikely pairs set off on the course to true love, with a little help from singing sailors, an exotic disguise, and good old-fashioned blackmail. Peppering this hilariously bumpy ride is a songbook of Cole Porter’s biggest hits, including “I Get a Kick Out of You,” “It’s De-lovely,” and, of course, “Anything Goes.”
