Guys and Dolls at Nebraska Communities Playhouse

GUYS AND DOLLS
Music and Lyrics by FRANK LOESSER
Book by JO SWERLING and ABE BURROWS

Bustling with gamblers, showgirls, and unforgettable music, Guys and Dolls is Broadway’s quintessential musical comedy. Set in Damon Runyon’s colorful New York City, the story follows Nathan Detroit, desperate to set up the city’s biggest craps game while avoiding the authorities and placating his long-suffering fiancée, Adelaide. When high-roller Sky Masterson takes on a bet involving the straight-laced missionary Sarah Brown, sparks fly in a whirlwind that carries us from the streets of Times Square to the lively clubs of Havana.

With show-stopping songs like Luck Be a Lady, Sit Down, You’re Rockin’ the Boat, and Adelaide’s Lament, Frank Loesser’s iconic score makes Guys and Dolls a timeless favorite. Funny, romantic, and full of heart, this classic musical is the perfect night out for the whole family.
