Gangsters, gambling and glamour are coming to Budleigh Salterton this Summer with MTSoc Tour’s production of Guys and Dolls.
Set in prohibition-era Broadway, Nathan Detroit is running out of places to run his secret, underground, floating craps game. Only a crazy bet with a high roller like Sky Masterson will earn him the cash he needs in time to set up the game. But when Nathan bets Sky that he can’t woo the pure-hearted, local mission worker Sarah Brown, he finds that he may have underestimated Sky; and Sky may have underestimated love’s ability to sneak up on you when you least expect it.
Colourful characters, a fast paced plot, dialogue dripping with wit and show-stopping musical numbers such as “Luck be a Lady Tonight” and “Sit Down You’re Rocking the Boat” make Guys and Dolls as popular today as it was when it was released over 60 years ago. This production will really bring out the best of any performer; whether you’re a singer, a dancer, an actor or all three, there’s a place for you in Guys and Dolls. And with an opportunity to join a society increasingly known for its quality shows and excellent production values, as well as the sheer fun for all involved, you’d be mad to miss out.
