Guys and Dolls was first seen on Broadway in 1950 and in the West End in 1953. Since then the show has had numerous tours and revivals, picking up a plethora of Tony and Olivier Awards along the way.
Set in 50’s New York, Guys and Dolls tells the sordid tale of gamblers, gangsters and club singers who are all involved in somewhat illicit goings on across the city. The show focuses on the character of Nathan Detroit, somewhat of a gangster who runs an illegal dice game, much to the dismay of his long suffering fiancé, Adelaide.
Nathan takes on prolific gambler, Sky Masterson, in order to win some much needed cash. Nathan bets Sky that he cannot woo Christian missionary, Sarah Brown but of course Sky believes otherwise and it is game on. Can Sky date the undatable, can Nathan please Adelaide, who is desperate to reform him?
