THE RIVER HEIGHTS COMMUNITY THEATRE PRESENTS: “ANYTHING GOES” SEPTEMBER 20TH-22ND, 2013 AT RIVER HEIGHTS HIGH.

DIRECTORS NOTE FROM NANCY:

“In olden days a glimpse of stocking was looked on as something shocking now heaven knows, anything goes!” Congratulations to the cast of our VERY first production as a newly formed community theatre! Rehearsals will begin in July. I am so excited to share this voyage on the S.S American together!”

ANYTHING GOES SYNOPSIS:

Anything Goes is a farce by Cole Porter which first performed in 1934. It is set aboard the ocean liner S. S. American, where nightclub singer/evangelist Reno Sweeney is en route from New York to England. Her pal Billy Crocker has stowed away to be near his love, Hope Harcourt, but the problem is Hope is engaged to the wealthy Lord Evelyn Oakleigh. Joining this love triangle on board the luxury liner are Public Enemy #13, Moonface Martin and his sidekick-in-crime Erma. With the help of some elaborate disguises, tap-dancing sailors and good old-fashioned blackmail, Reno and Martin join forces to help Billy in his quest to win Hope’s heart. The show features classic golden age songs such as: “Anything Goes”, “You’re The Top”, “Blow Gabriel Blow”, and “I Get A Kick Out Of You”.

“I got to play an old man and honestly, it didn’t feel any different than reality.”- Patrick Doswett, Elisha J. Whitney

“Moonface Martin is a scumbag, I would arrest him so hard.”- Tino Balducci, Moonface Martin

“I have never been apart of the theatre before, but that man that I co-starred with was gorgeous!”- Kyler Mallory, Hope Harcourt

“It was very weird to have a kissing scene with Nancy’s friend Kyler. But, this is theatre. Life goes on.”- Carson Drew, Billy Crocker.

*** WARNING: Sensitive Content*** A film designed to inspire younger generations to get out and vote for representatives who advocate sensible gun control laws in the November ’18 midterms. Written by Kesha, Sage, Chika, Pebe Sebert, and Drew Pearson, the song was created as an artistic response to the mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. The film is a looping, metaphoric visualization of the predictable events that follow a mass shooting. Using the overly complicated and at times comical mechanics of a Rube Goldberg machine, the story takes place inside a school while a shooting is occurring. After every shooting, there’s outrage, prayers and false promises. Then it happens again. End #TheMostViciousCycle. Vote for candidates who support sensible gun laws and share the video. #VoteForOurLives on 11/6. The film is a looping, metaphoric visualization of the predictable events that follow a mass shooting. Using the overly complicated and comical mechanics of a Rube Goldberg machine, the story takes place inside a school while a shooting is taking place.

THE GYPSY IN ME – ANYTHING GOES has been published at http://www.theleader.info/2019/04/09/the-gypsy-in-me-anything-goes/

New Post has been published on http://www.theleader.info/2019/04/09/the-gypsy-in-me-anything-goes/

THE GYPSY IN ME – ANYTHING GOES

STUDIO32 Musical Theatre group are pleased to announce that rehearsals for our Summer musical extravaganza Anything Goes are well underway. This farcical show is set on board the luxury liner S.S. American sailing from New York to London during the post prohibition era of the early 1930’s. The original idea for a musical set on board an ocean liner came from the producer Vinton Freedley who at the time was living on a boat, having left the US to avoid his creditors. He selected the writing team of P.G. Wodehouse and Guy Bolton, and the star Ethel Merman, with Cole Porter writing the music and lyrics. [caption id="attachment_29762" align="aligncenter" width="1333"] Studio32-LordEvelyn[/caption] The story involves Billy Crocker, a young Wall Street broker, who has fallen in love at first sight with a beautiful girl he met in a taxi. His boss, Elisha J. Whitney, is preparing to make a business deal and is going to travel to London aboard the SS American. Evangelist turned nightclub singer Reno Sweeney will be traveling aboard the same ship. Billy sees Reno as a friend, but she obviously has feelings for him ("I Get A Kick Out of You"). Billy goes to the dock to say farewell to his boss and Reno ("Bon Voyage"), and glimpses the mysterious girl again. He learns that she is heiress Hope Harcourt and, escorted by her mother, Mrs. Harcourt, is on her way to England with her fiancé Lord Evelyn Oakleigh, a handsome but stuffy and hapless British nobleman brilliantly portrayed by Nick Morgan (pictured). Nick is a very experienced actor and dancer and has appeared in many productions in the UK and here in Spain as a member of STUDIO32. He brings to this role great comedic acting and his song “The Gypsy In Me” will have the audience in stitches. As well as performing Nick also choreographed the dance routine for this number. STUDIO32 are proud and delighted to once again be supporting charities and good causes in the area, including the San Fulgencio Alzheimers Society and the local music school. The show goes on from Wednesday May 29th to Saturday June 1st at the Cardenal Belluga Theatre in San Fulgencio, all performances start at 7:30pm with doors open at 7:00pm. Reserved seating tickets are now on sale, priced 10 euros, and can be obtained by emailing [email protected] or calling 744 48 49 33. Current seating availability for each performance is available on their website www.studiothirtytwo.org so book your seat now and you’ll be sure to enjoy a fabulous evening’s entertainment.

The Most Vicious Cycle | Music Video from Ben Smith on Vimeo.

The film is a looping, metaphoric visualization of the predictable events that follow a mass shooting. Using the overly complicated and comical mechanics of a Rube Goldberg machine, the story takes place inside a school while a shooting is taking place.
