Guys And Dolls

A "scintillating revival"
Financial Times, 2016 London revival
Why see Guys And Dolls?
This musical icon is anything but a risky gamble!
Director Nick DeGruccio makes a welcome return to TUTS in summer 2018, helming a brand-new production of Guys and Dolls! Praised for setting the Houston stage alight with his recent production of In The Heights, DeGruccio has also helmed successful stagings of First Date (LA Mirada Theatre), Sondheim's Company (Cabrillo Music Theatre) and the LA Regional Premiere of Next To Normal (La Mirada Theatre). Guys And Dolls first premiered in 1950, and won five Tony Awards including Best Musical. Join us for a red-hot sizzler of a musical that tells of gamblers, gangsters and nightclub singers.
Finger-clickingly, toe-tappingly catchy!
Soaring with the spirit of Broadway and Damon Runyon's re-imagined version of New York City, Guys and Dolls 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.
The toe-tappingly awesome soundtrack includes Broadway favorites such as Luck be a Lady, Sit Down You're Rockin' the Boat and My Time of Day!
