Patrick Swayze took part in a press meet and greet for the smash London revival of Guys and Dolls on June 5th. Both Swayze, who will be making his West End debut, and Claire Sweeney join the cast of the classic Frank Loesser musical on July 10th--as Nathan Detroit and Miss Adelaide, respectively. They were joined at the meet and greet by Adam Cooper and Kelly Price, who currently play Sky Masterson and Sarah Brown.

Swayze will play a limited eight-week run in the show. The actor, who made his Broadway debut as Danny in Grease, has also appeared on Broadway in Goodtime Charley and Chicago (as well as in that show's tour). His film credits include Donnie Darko, To Wong Foo Thanks for Everything, Julie Newmar, Point Break, Ghost, Steel Dawn and Dirty Dancing, which will be seen on the West End as a new stage musical beginning in September. He was also seen in its recent sequel, Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights.

Guys and Dolls, directed by Michael Grandage and choreographed by Rob Ashford, is playing an extended run at the Piccadilly Theatre through December 30th, 2006 (closing was previously announced for September). The revival originally featured Ewan McGregor and Jane Krakowski, among others. It also currently features Sally Ann Triplett as Miss Adelaide and Neil Morrissey as Nathan Detroit. A UK tour, which will feature Sweeney and Nigel Harman for part of its run, is set to kick off in Glasgow in September.
