Guys and Dolls has won a bevy of Tony Awards, Drama Desks and Olivier’s during its original production. The musical was written by Frank Loesser.
“We will have a live orchestra from the NWSA music division and there will be more of a modern twist with costuming.” said Patrice Bailey, NWSA dean of theater and director of the musical. “As a director, I am always thinking about how to make a show like Guys and Dolls relevant to a modern audience. Certainly today’s audience can still relate to the story of taking a risk and gambling on love.”
