Director's Notes:
With so much fine talent in our secondary schools, both male and female, it was rather difficult to find a musical that could feature so many. So it was decided that contrary to the prior musical which was selling souls, it was time to save a few and "Guys and Dolls" was selected. Director Larry Williams, along with Choreographers Kim Harding and Kathy Andrulevich, and set designer Rick Eckhart recreated Damon Runyon's breezy legend of the underworld. The cast led by Sigrid Horoschak, Matt Green, Jennifer Andreas, and Terry Moser, rolled sevens three successful nights in a row. Chris Mack made sure no one rocked the boat and the 15 gambling crapshooters in the sewer, the talented Chatterbox dancers, and the sincere Save-A-Soul Salvation Army brought us a truly entertaining show.
