Guys and Dolls
"Lights up the West End."
The Daily Telegraph
Why see Guys and Dolls?
New home for guys and dolls!
This hit revival of this West End favourite has been swinging the Savoy Theatre since December and now extends its run at the Phoenix Theatre! This red-hot sizzler of a musical tells the story of gamblers, gangsters and nightclub singers. The glorious soundtrack includes faves such as Luck be a Lady, Sit Down You're Rockin' the Boat and My Time of Day, and is choreographed by none other than Cuban ballet icon, Carlos Acosta. Starring Rebel Wilson as Miss Adelaide from 28th June!
WHAT IS GUYS AND DOLLS ABOUT?
The story brings together a collection of colourful characters in Depression era New York. First, there's Sarah Brown, the upright but uptight 'mission doll' out to reform the evil-doers of Time Square. Next up is Sky Masterson, the slick, high-rolling gambler who woos her on a bet and ends up falling in love. Adelaide is a chronically ill nightclub performer whose condition is brought on by the fact she's been engaged to the same man for fourteen long years. And last but not least there's her devoted fiance Nathan Detroit, desperate as ever to find a spot for his world renowned floating crap game!
They all come together in one heck of a thrill-ride through gangster-era New York, that can leave hearts aflame, or broken on the ground!

old-fashioned musical camp
The story of the seedy underworld of Broadway, littered with petty crooks, gamblers and showgirls, Guys and Dolls is a classic, quotable musical that sees one Nathan Detroit try desperately to find somewhere for his infamous floating craps game.

Groundbreaking
Just the three visits for me, all immersive, and planning more. As a seasoned theatre goer I've never left a theatre on such a high, Mormon, Hamilton....etc...all excellent but this just raises the bar, took me days to recover. I now have the cast recording to keep me going in between visits! Quite possibly the best thing I've ever seen on stage/stages, you get so involved, you know the characters and I got to dance (briefly) with Miss Adelaide at the end. The entire production is utterly magnificant and the design/layout at the Bridge theatre has set the standard. ... Read more

Absolutely brilliant!
I'm not a great fan of musicals tbh, but this production of Guys and Dolls at the Bridge theatre was terrific. The vocals, particularly by Cedric, were stunning. The cast seemed to be really enjoying the performance and this was truly infectious. Would highly recommend this fantastic immersive experience. ... Read more

Easily the best thing I've ever seen
Easily the best thing I’ve ever seen. I had an immersive ticket and would recommend this - try to stand near the middle - incredibly exciting, I was grinning from start to finish. Acting, choreography, singing, live band - all mwah mwah mwah. You even get to dance at the end. It’s utterly irresistible, every song’s a banger and VOICES people - talent everywhere you look. Yes I loved the *rocking* rocking the boat number and everything that Adelaide sings, and the crazy night in Havana - who doesn’t love pure sass on a stick? But for me, the More I cannot give you song was the loveliest moment - such a cute dad figure. I doubt you’ll be able to get a ticket any more, but if you can you’ll be saying ‘I do’ all the way. ...
