Guys and Dolls is classic American musical theatre at its very best—an upbeat and highly entertaining story of likable small-time gamblers, big-time romance, and the “oldest established permanent floating craps game in New York.”  It is full of comedy, dancing, colorful characters, and one memorable song after another!

The special ticketed event will include a Social Hour and tickets to the play to raise money for student scholarships.
