Joel Grey Will Join Sutton Foster in Broadway Revival of Anything Goes

Tony and Oscar winner Joel Grey will return to Broadway as Moonface Martin in the upcoming Roundabout Theatre Company revival of Anything Goes. Grey joins previously announced star Sutton Foster, who will play Reno Sweeney in a production directed and choreographed by Kathleen Marshall. Performances will begin on March 10, 2011 ahead of an official opening on April 7 at the Stephen Sondheim Theatre.

Grey created the iconic role of the M.C. in Cabaret, for which he won a Tony Award. He went on to win an Academy Award for reprising his role in the film version. Other Broadway credits include song and dance man George M. Cohan in George M!, Charley VII in Goodtime Charlie and Jacobowsky in The Grand Tour, all of which earned him Tony nominations. He played Amos Hart in the landmark revival of Chicago, and most recently he created the role of the Wonderful Wizard of Oz in Wicked.

Featuring a classic score by Cole Porter, Anything Goes premiered on Broadway on November 21, 1934, with Ethel Merman as Reno Sweeney, an evangelist-turned-nightclub singer who entertains passengers during a trans-Atlantic cruise.
