Sanford High School Theater Company presents

GUYS AND DOLLS

FRIDAY, MARCH 29 – 6:30PM
SATURDAY, MARCH 30 – 1:00 & 6:30PM

Sanford High School Theater Company invites you to experience the beloved musical Guys and Dolls! With Frank Loesser’s brassy, immortal score, Guys and Dolls is considered by many to be the perfect Broadway musical.

Set in Damon Runyon’s mythical New York City, Guys and Dolls is an oddball romantic comedy. 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 and nightclub performer, Adelaide, laments that they’ve been engaged for 14 years. Nathan turns to fellow gambler, Sky Masterson, for the dough, and Sky ends up chasing the strait-laced missionary, Sarah Brown, as a result.

One of the greatest musical comedies of all-time, Guys and Dolls ran for 1,200 performances when it opened on Broadway in 1950. It received nearly unanimous positive reviews from critics and won a bevy of awards, including Tony Awards, Drama Desks and Oliviers.
