 SHS Drama Club presents "Anything Goes"

 

Swampscott High School Drama Club is proud to announce their spring musical, "Anything Goes", featuring music and lyrics by Cole Porter. The production runs May 14th, 15th and 16th in the high school theater at 7pm. 

"Anything Goes" is a classic comedy that acquaints its audience with a peculiar group of passengers aboard the S.S. American, sailing from New York to England. Billy Crocker, played by Conor Pickett, stows away on the ship to win over his love, Hope Harcourt. Hope, played by Molly Heller, is engaged to the English gentleman, Sir Evelyn Oakleigh, played by Cody Nunno. Former evangelist gone nightclub singer, Reno Sweeney, played by Bianca Munoz, uses her womanly wiles in an effort to lead Sir Oakleigh astray while Moonface Martin, played by T.J. Lamando, and his sidekick Bonnie, played by Olivia Barba, aid Billy in his quest to win Hope back. A series of comical mistaken identities ensues as the passengers and crew sing and dance their way across the Atlantic.

Tickets for "Anything Goes" are already on sale. They are $15 for adults and $7 for students and seniors. For more information on the production or ticket purchases, please e-mail us at anythinggoes@swampscottpops.org

 

 

Please keep reading the Swampscott Reporter for features on the leads of the show! TJ Lamando and Olivia Barba will be featured on April 30th, Cody Nunno and Bianca Munoz on May 7th, and Conor Pickett and Molly Heller on May 14th.
