Synopsis

Christmas Eve, 1932. Three New York wise guys on the run from a hotheaded racketeer journey from a Manhattan speakeasy to a swanky Long Island mansion to a ramshackle barn in Pennsylvania, inadvertently spreading holiday cheer everywhere they go. Based on two short stories by Damon Runyon (GUYS AND DOLLS), this effervescent comedy fizzes with laughter and heart.“Funny, sweet, and thoroughly charming … The voices here are unalloyed, cartoon New York, with a ‘guys and dolls’ locution that earns laughs as much from sentence structure as from the jokes themselves. In Runyon’s universe, unlawful activities are mitigated by a deep but grudging moral code. And his characters, like all good gangsters, occasionally break out into impeccable barbershop harmonies.” —The New Yorker“A sure bet … graceful, funny, and warm [which] comforts as much as it amuses … a tribute to the era of speakeasies, bootleggers, guys and dolls.” —Curtain Up“Very charming … sit back and enjoy … high-wire theatre-making that leaves you a little breathless and considerably in awe.” —Theaterscene“An adorable new wise-guy fable … It’s so lovable that regional theater artistic directors across the land would be their own guys and dolls to program the piece this very year as a seasonal treat. [It] is simply too, too good.” —David Finkle, New York Stage Review“A little gem of a play.” —NY Theatre Guide“Tickles the funny bone! … It’s amazing how much can happen in one evening!” —Theater Pizzazz
