Friday, February 7th – Saturday, March 1st, 2014Set in Damon Runyon’s mythical New York City, this romantic comedy embodies the spirit of Broadway and follows the relationships of four vivid and legendary characters: Sarah Brown, the uptight “mission doll,” out to reform the evildoers of Time Square; Sky Masterson, the slick, high-rolling gambler who woos her on a bet and ends up falling in love; Adelaide, the chronically ill nightclub performer whose condition is brought on by the fact she’s been engaged to the same man for 14 years; and Nathan Detroit, her devoted fiancé, desperate as always to find a spot for his infamous floating crap game.
