SHREVEPORT, La. (KSLA) - A Tony-winning classic promises big laughs, big romance, and a toe-tapping musical performance on the stage of Shreveport Little Theatre.
Starting on July 17, the Shreveport Little Theatre will begin its first production of its 104th Main Stage season with the comedy Guys and Dolls.
Featuring music and lyrics by Frank Loesser and book by Jo Swerling and Abe Burrows, Guys and Dolls has been hailed by critics as the “perfect musical comedy”.
Guys and Dolls is a Tony-winning classic that takes audiences on a dazzling ride through the streets of 1950s New York City, where gamblers, showgirls, and missionaries cross paths.
Suave gambler Sky Masterson, played by Adam Philley, bets he can win the heart of prim-and-proper missionary Sarah Brown, played by Tessa VanderKuy, and the odds are anything but predictable.
