About the work

Guys and Dolls

A gambler bets he can take any woman the others name to Havana, and they name the sergeant running the Salvation Army mission on Broadway. Damon Runyon's New York underworld speaks in his own elaborate present tense, nobody uses a contraction, and the result is often called the best-built comedy in the form.
