Williams Street Repertory, McHenry County's only professional theater company, presents Broadway's toe-tappingly fun romantic musical!

WSR is excited to bring bouncy Broadway fun to downtown Crystal Lake with their upcoming production of "Guys and Dolls." Broadway's toe-tapping musical about a couple of high-rolling gamblers and the strong-willed gals who love them opens at Raue Center For The Arts on June 30, 2017 and runs select dates through July 23, 2017.

In this oddball romantic comedy, gambler Nathan Detroit needs cash to set up the biggest craps game in town and his girlfriend, Adelaide, is ready to say "I do."
