Brimming with gangsters, gamblers, showgirls, and holy rollers, GUYS AND DOLLS: A MUSICAL FABLE OF BROADWAY is an oddball romantic comedy that finds Nathan Detroit setting up the biggest craps game in New York while fending off questions of marriage from his fiancée of 14 years, Adelaide. Meanwhile, fellow gambler, Sky Masterson, finds himself unexpectedly in love with the straight-laced missionary, Sarah Brown.

Translated by Christopher Hampton. |
