Guys And Dolls


Book by  Jo Swerling and Abe Burrows
Music by  Frank Loesser
Lyrics by  Frank Loesser
Based on The Idyll of Sarah Brown and characters by Damon Runyon

Two Acts, Book Musical, Rated G
Original Broadway version (1950)

Set in Damon Runyon's mythical New York City, this oddball romantic comedy - considered by many to be the perfect musical comedy-soars with the spirit of Broadway as it introduces us to a cast of vivid characters who have become legends in the canon: Sarah Brown, the upright but uptight "mission doll," out to reform the evildoers of Time Square; Sky Masterson, the slick, high-rolling gambler who woos her on a bet and ends up falling in love; Adelaide, the chronically ill nightclub performer whose condition is brought on by the fact she's been engaged to the same man for 14 years; and Nathan Detroit, her devoted fiance, desperate as always to find a spot for his infamous floating crap game.
