One brilliantly witty Cole Porter number after another marks this fabulous musical comedy first presented in 1934. A jubilant tale taking place aboard the S.S. American bound for Europe, it includes stowaways, nightclub sirens, shipboard romance, mistaken identity, a gangster and nonstop fun. The music? “You’re the Top,” “I Get a Kick Out of You,” “Blow, Gabriel, Blow,” “It’s Delovely,” “All Through the Night,” “Friendship,” “Easy to Love” and of course, the title song. “A thundering good musical,” said The NY Times; “…likely to be the best musical on Broadway for some time to come,” raved the NY Post.
