A meeting of the committee members took place in January 2004 when it was decided that the show for 2004 would be “Guys & Dolls”. As usual it was put on during October (13th to 16th).
Bob and Alison made a splendid job of “Guys & Dolls” and the show was another success story for MADS. The band added tremendously to the atmosphere of the job due to the style of music it contains. Every one involved really worked hard to make the show the success that it was.
SYNOPSIS
Desperate to find money to pay for his floating crap game, Nathan Detroit bets Sky Masterson a thousand dollars that Sky will not be able to take a local Salvation Army girl, Sarah Brown, to Cuba. While Sky eventually is able to convince Sarah to join him, Nathan battles with his fiancé of fourteen years, Adelaide. Meanwhile in Cuba, Sky ends up falling in love with Sarah and tries to reform his gambling ways. When he returns back to New York, he bets all the members of the floating crap game that if he wins his roll of the dice, they will all have to go to church and repent. If he loses, he will give them each a thousand dollars. He ends up winning and all the gamblers end up visiting the mission and repenting their sins.
