Guys and Dolls at Westcoast Black Theatre Troupe

Opening WBTT's 2022-2023 theatre season is Guys and Dolls, the 1950 Tony Award-winner for Best Musical. A fun, quirky musical comedy, Guys and Dolls debuted on Broadway in 1950 to universal acclaim and has been revived many times. In New York City, gambler Nathan Detroit dreams of setting up a big dice game while avoiding the authorities enlisting fellow gambler Sky Masterson to help. Meanwhile, Nathans girlfriend, nightclub performer Miss Adelaide, laments their 14-year engagement, while Sky ends up chasing the strait-laced missionary Sarah Brown in a scheme to raise money for the game. Guys and Dolls is a real crowd-pleaser and WBTT will add its own special twist! WBTTs Education Director/Artistic Associate Jim Weaver will direct.
