Guys and Dolls
The Story
Guys and Dolls is the story of love,
money and salvation in New York City. The plot begins as gambler Nathan Detroit,
accompanied by his cohorts Nicely-Nicely Johnson and Benny Southstreet, is
unable to find a location in which to hold his floating crap game. He needs to
secure $1000 with which he can bribe for himself a place for the game. So, he
makes a bet with successful gambler Sky Masterson that Sky cannot take Sarah
Brown (a sergeant at the Save-a-Soul Mission) to Havana for a day. Not only does
Sky try to take Sarah to Havana, he also tries to win her heart.
Meanwhile, Nathan has romantic troubles of his own. He constantly attempts to
stay one step ahead of his fiancée, Miss Adelaide, who wants to get him to
actually marry her after a decade-long engagement and is also trying to set him
on the straight and narrow path.
