Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A musical first performed in 1934 with songs by Cole Porter and a book by Guy Bolton and P. G. Wodehouse. Anything Goes takes place aboard a transatlantic cruise and follows the antics of a number of unusual passengers, including evangelist-turned-nightclub singer Reno Sweeney (originally played by Ethel Merman), hapless would-be gangster "Moonface" Martin, disguised as a pastor (originally played by Victor Moore), and Billy, a self-described "broken down stockbroker" who stowed away in the hopes of thwarting his girlfriend Hope's Arranged Marriage to Upper-Class Twit Evelyn Oakley. Famous songs from the show include the title song, as well as "You're the Top" and "I Get a Kick Out of You". "Friendship" is also well known, but it's not originally from this show.It received major revivals on Broadway twice, first in the 1960s in a version that interpolated songs from a number of Porter's other shows, and again in the 1980s in a version that stayed closer to the original musical in terms of songs, although not necessarily in terms of script. A third Broadway revival came out in 2011, based on the 1980s revival. It won the Tony Award for Best Revival of a Musical.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Not to be confused with the opening theme for Kamen Rider OOO. Or the style of martial arts practiced by Ranma ½. | |

Anything Goes (Theatre) / int_736d791f | comment |
Adaptational Badass: Of a sort with Reno. In prior productions, she would often let the ensemble do the heavy dancing, but once Sutton Foster played her, she not only led the dancing, but she did so with greatly expanded dance breaks. It’s now uncommon to cast a Reno who can’t dance after Foster’s performance. This also applies to other characters in the 2011 Broadway production, with Billy, Hope, Evelyn, and Erma all getting the chance to show off their moves thanks to the longer music breaks implemented during their numbers. Even Moonface engages in an entirely new dance break during “Be Like the Bluebird”. | |

The Alcoholic: Eli. If the actor playing him doesn’t seem wasted for literally the entire show, he’s doing it wrong. | |

All Girls Want Bad Boys | |
Anything Goes (Theatre) / int_db2f3581 | comment |
All Girls Want Bad Boys: Averted with both Reno and Hope. Both their respective love interests are the exact opposite of this, and Reno briefly addresses the ridiculousness of this trope in the show-stopping title song. However, while Reno is attracted to Evelyn beforehand, she truly falls for him after he shows his wild side in “Gypsy in Me”. Hope however is a more clear aversion, as she’s repeatedly upset by Billy’s amoral hijinks, but she finally realizes that she loves him after he drops the bad boy act and apologizes to her.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) | |
