A performance of Tony Award-winning Broadway Musical Anything Goes will be held at the Ford Center Wednesday.

OXFORD, Miss. – The Gertrude C. Ford Center for the Performing Arts continues its lineup of top-notch entertainment this spring, with the national Broadway tour of Tony Award-winning musical “Anything Goes” coming up Jan. 28.

The show begins at 7:30 p.m. Tickets start at $55 for the balcony, $61 for the mezzanine and $66.50 for the orchestra level and are available at the UM Box Office, inside the Ole Miss Student Union.

The story follows the S.S. American as it sets sail, causing two unlikely couples to fall in love.

The performance features several of Cole Porter’s classic songs, including “I Get a Kick Out of You,” “You’re the Top” and “Anything Goes.”

The critically acclaimed performance has been called “a knockout” by The New York Times and “gorgeous and sparkling” by Entertainment Weekly.

“At the Ford Center, we strive to bring a variety of entertainment to the Ole Miss campus to enrich the lives of students and Oxford community members,” said Kate Meacham, Ford Center marketing director. “We are very excited about the performance of yet another Broadway show as part of our Ford Series and we know all in attendance will enjoy the show.”
