National Youth Theater presents Guys and Dolls August 2-4
National Youth Theater (NYT) announces its upcoming summer production of Guys and Dolls. Guys and Dolls takes us from the bustle of Times Square to the dance clubs of Havana to the sewers of New York City as it demonstrates the great lengths to which a guy will go when he truly falls in love with a “doll.”
Hailed by many as the perfect musical comedy, this Tony-winning favorite follows a rowdy bunch of gamblers, gangsters, and sassy showgirls in a wild game of chance—then love sneaks in! Set in bustling 1950s Manhattan, Guys and Dolls features some of Frank Loesser’s most memorable tunes including the hilarious “Adelaide’s Lament” and the crowd-pleasing classic “Luck Be a Lady.”
The talented cast presents the show August 2-4, at Lone Star College Tomball, Performing Arts Center, located at 30555 Tomball Parkway in Tomball. The directorial team includes director/choreographer Carla Prescott, assistant director Holly Jasso, vocal director Dr. Lisa Morales, and co-choreographer Abigail Collier.
