The beloved "musical fable of Broadway" is coming to the DW Poppy stage  March 4-7, 2015

Set in 1950s Newy York, GUYS AND DOLLS follows a host of colourful and sometimes eccentric characters in a humourous and touching story based around the brigt lights and shady corners of Times Square. 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, nightclub performer Adelaide, laments that they've been engaged for 14 years. Nathan turns to fellow gambler Sky Masterson for the dough, but Sky ends up chasing the straight-laced missionary Sarah Brown. 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.
