Embrace the Glitz and Glamour of Broadway's Finest

A Legendary Musical Masterpiece

"Guys and Dolls" has long been hailed as one of the greatest American musicals of all time, earning praise from prestigious publications like TIME Magazine, which dubbed it "The greatest of all American Musicals!" The New York Times has also celebrated the show, describing it as "the show that defines Broadway dazzle." This Tony Award-winning production, including the coveted Best Musical accolade, promises to captivate audiences with its irresistible blend of luck, love, and the vibrant energy of 1950s New York City.

A Captivating Storyline Steeped in Runyon's Mythical World

Set against the colorful backdrop of Damon Runyon's legendary 1950s New York, "Guys and Dolls" transports audiences to a world where underground dice-slinging rogues, glitzy "showgirls," and high-stakes romances collide. The story follows the adventures of career gambler Sky Masterson, who makes a bet of a lifetime to win the heart of "Save-A-Soul" missionary Sarah Brown, and the long-suffering nightclub star Adelaide, who laments her beau Nathan Detroit's 14-year failure to tie the knot. From the heart of Times Square to the cafes of Havana and the sewers of New York, this sparkling romantic comedy promises to captivate audiences with its wit, charm, and a bushel of heart.

A Timeless Treasure Brimming with Iconic Tunes

Resonating with iconic songs such as "Luck Be a Lady," "If I Were A Bell," and "Sit Down, You're Rockin' the Boat," "Guys and Dolls" is a true musical masterpiece. Boasting Frank Loesser's irresistible music and lyrics, as well as a clever book by Jo Swerling and Abe Burrows, this production promises an unforgettable evening at the theater. From its Broadway debut in 1950 to its iconic film adaptation starring Frank Sinatra and Marlon Brando in 1955, and its subsequent Broadway revivals, "Guys and Dolls" has cemented its place as a timeless treasure in the annals of American musical theater.
