FOLLOWING fantastic productions of Singin’ in the Rain, The Pajama Game and, most recently, Gypsy, Chichester Festival Theatre continue their triumphant musical successes with an exuberant revival of Guys and Dolls which will visit the Mayflower from Tuesday, May 17 – Saturday, May 21, 2016.
Casting has yet to be announced.
A joyous and vibrant celebration of Prohibition-era New York, Guys and Dolls first premiered on Broadway in 1950 and captured the optimism and energy of post-Second World War America.
It features some of Broadway’s greatest musical numbers including My Time of Day and Luck be a Lady. Guys and Dolls is directed by Gordon Greenberg with choreography by former Royal Ballet star Carlos Acosta, pictured above, and Andrew Wright whose credits include Chichester Festival Theatre’s Singin’ in the Rain.
Gordon Greenberg has directed plays and musicals at major theatres across America and Europe and has written for television and stage.
Carlos Acosta trained at the National Ballet School of Cuba, and has danced as a principal with English National Ballet, National Ballet of Cuba and Houston Ballet.
He is a Principal Guest Artist with The Royal Ballet and appears worldwide with companies including ABT, Paris Opera Ballet, Kirov and Bolshoi.
Tickets for Guys and Dolls are on sale from Mayflower Theatre Box Office.
