Arkansas Repertory Theatre Announces Tickets On Sale For GUYS & DOLLS

The Arkansas Repertory Theatre has announced that tickets are on sale for Guys & Dolls, running November 30-December 31, 2022.

With its brassy, immortal score, Guys & Dolls is the oddball romantic comedy that is considered by many to be the perfect musical. Will Nathan Detroit find a location for the secret craps game? Will Adelaide finally get a wedding after her fourteen-year engagement? Will what happened in Havana, stay in Havana? This fun, new production, filled with exciting choreography, is the perfect outing for family and friends during the holiday season. New York Daily News called the musical "an artistic triumph. The perfect musical." The production is generously sponsored by Bank of America.
