2025 All-School Musical | Guys and Dolls

Coming September 10-14, 2025 to Booker T. Washington's High School for the Performing and Visual Arts Montgomery Arts Theatre, GUYS AND DOLLS!

Set in Damon Runyon's Mythical New York City, Guys and Dolls is an oddball romantic comedy. Gambler, Nathan Detroit, tries to find the cash to set up the biggest craps game in town while the authorities breathe down his neck; meanwhile, his girlfriend and nightclub performer, Adelaide, laments that they've been engaged for fourteen years. Nathan turns to fellow gambler Sky Masterson for the "Benjamins," and Sky ends up chasing the straight-laced missionary, Sarah Brown, as a result.

The large cast features both a variety of ensemble and star roles. Booker T.'s portrayal will be cast non-traditionally with a unique artistic vision.
