Guys And Dolls Steps Into The Limelight In Millburn Friday

MILLBURN, NJ - The Millburn High School Limelight Players want audiences to roll the dice this weekend with their spring musical "Guys and Dolls" Friday, March 1 and Saturday, March 2 at 7:30 p.m. in the Millburn High School Auditorium, 462 Millburn Ave.

Tickets are available in advance for $15 for adults, $10 for students. Patrons may order and select seats at https://mhsnj.booktix.com

Considered by many to be the perfect musical comedy, "Guys and Dolls" ran for 1,200 performances when it opened on Broadway in 1950. It received nearly unanimous positive reviews from critics and won a bevy of awards, including Tony Awards, Drama Desks and Oliviers.

Set in Damon Runyon's mythical New York City, Guys and Dolls is an oddball romantic comedy. Gambler, Nathan Detroit, tries to find the cash to set up the biggest craps game in town while the authorities breathe down his neck; meanwhile, his girlfriend and nightclub performer, Adelaide, laments that they've been engaged for fourteen years. Nathan turns to fellow gambler, Sky Masterson, for the dough, and Sky ends up chasing the straight-laced missionary, Sarah Brown, as a result. Guys and Dolls takes us from the heart of Times Square to the cafes of Havana, Cuba, and even into the sewers of New York City, but eventually everyone ends up right where they belong.
