POTSDAM -- The Community Performance Series continues its 25th season with the production "Anything Goes" with performances from July 22 to 26.

Anything Goes" will be shown in the Sara M. Snell Music Theater at SUNY Potsdam's Crane School with evening performances at 7:30 p.m. and a 2 p.m. matinee on July 26.

"Anything Goes," takes place on the S.S. American, where two unlikely pairs set off on a course to true love, proving that sometimes destiny needs a little help from a crew of singing sailors, an exotic disguise and some good old-fashioned blackmail. Songs include Cole Porter standards, including "I Get a Kick out of You," "It's Delovely" and "Anything Goes."

Since its 1934 debut at the Alvin Theater (now known as the Neil Simon Theater) on Broadway, the musical has been revived several times in the U.S., including the 2011 Roundabout Theater revival, starring Sutton Foster. The musical has been filmed twice, has won three Tony Awards, with seven nominations. Donna Drake will direct the Potsdam performance.

Tickets: 267-2277, www.cpspotsdam.org, from Northern Music and Video in Potsdam. Prices range form $15 to $30, seniors age 62 and up get a discount.

Call the CPS box office for box seats at $40 or $50 each.
