Book by Abe Burrows and Jo Swerling
Music and Lyrics by Frank Loesser

Set in Damon Runyon’s mythical New York City, Guys and Dolls is an oddball romantic comedy. Gambler, Nathan Detroit, tries to find the cash to set up the biggest craps game in town while the authorities breathe down his neck; meanwhile, his girlfriend and nightclub performer, Adelaide, laments that they’ve been engaged for fourteen years. Nathan turns to fellow gambler, Sky Masterson, for the dough, and Sky ends up chasing the straight-laced missionary, Sarah Brown, as a result. Guys and Dolls takes us from the heart of Times Square to the cafes of Havana, Cuba, and even into the sewers of New York City, but eventually, everyone ends up right where they belong. Frank Loesser’s brassy, immortal score makes Guys and Dolls a crowd-pleaser.

“Guys and Dolls is widely considered to be a “perfect” musical comedy for its story, humor, colorful characters, and Frank Loesser songs. It works as well today as it did when it opened to rave reviews in 1950.” – Herald-Tribune
