This Tony®-winning favorite by composer/lyricist Frank Loesser and book writers Jo Swerling and Abe Burrows has been hailed by many as a perfect musical comedy. Set in Damon Runyon's mythical New York City of the 1950s, Guys and Dolls follows a rowdy bunch of gamblers, gangsters, and showgirls in a wild game of chance-all set to Loesser's immortal score featuring songs such as "Adelaide's Lament" and "Luck Be a Lady."

Backed by an on-stage Kennedy Center Opera House Orchestra, the production will feature choreography by two-time Tony Award® nominee Denis Jones, music direction by Kevin Stites, scenic and projection design by Paul Tate DePoo III, costume design by Mara Blumenfeld, lighting design by Cory Pattak, sound design by Tony Award® winner Kai Harada and Haley Parcher, and casting by JZ Casting.

Guys and Dolls is presented as a part of Broadway Center Stage, a Kennedy Center-produced series conceived by Tony Award®-winning Executive Producer and Artistic Director Jeffrey Finn. The series has become a hit with both critics and audiences alike with star-studded performances of Next to Normal, Footloose, The Who's Tommy, The Music Man, Little Shop of Horrors, How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, In the Heights, and Chess. Following Guys and Dolls, the 2022-23 season will continue with the Tony Award®-winning Best Musicals Sunset Boulevard, starring Tony Award® winner Stephanie J. Block, and Kiss of the Spider Woman.
