Guys & Dolls (June 2004)
Aberdeen Arts Centre
Nathan Detroit, who operates a highly illegal dice game, is feeling the heat from Lieutenant Brannigan of the New York Police Department and needs to raise $1000 to keep his floating crap game afloat. Nathan lays a bet with the dashing gambler Sky Masterson that he cannot take Sergeant Sarah Brown of the Save-a-Soul Mission with him on a trip to Havana, Cuba. Meanwhile, Nathan keeps jilting Miss Adelaide, the nightclub chantoosie, to whom he has been engaged for 14 years, giving her a fierce case of psychosomatic sniffles.
After a series of comic complications, Nathan gets his game, Sky comes down to earth, Sarah saves a soul, Adelaide gets rid of her cold and they all live happily ever after.
“...anything Phoenix Theatre can do, their younger counterparts can do just as well...”
