Guys and Dolls

Guys and Dolls poster

Guys and Dolls – Coade Hall Theatre, Bryanston School

Thursday 22, Friday 23 and Saturday 24 November, 7.30 p.m.

A musical fable of Broadway based on a story and characters of Damon Runyon. Music and lyrics by Frank Loesser. Book by Jo Swerling and Abe Burrows. This amateur production is presented by arrangement with Josef Weinberger Ltd. on behalf of Music Theatre International of New York.

Nathan Detroit, inveterate gambler, runs a ‘floating craps game’ in New York, but is running out of secret hideaways to base his illegal activities. He manages to hang on to his glamorous but frustrated show girl fiancée, Adelaide, deftly avoiding matrimony. Amongst the morally bankrupt gamblers visiting town and also keen for some action is Sky Masterson, an enigmatic legend for the ‘guys’ and a womaniser of the ‘dolls’. Somehow the paths of these two ne’er do wells become entangled with the local branch of the Salvation Army and passionate moralist Sarah Brown…

With an exciting mixture of shady gambling, evangelical soul-searching, glamorous showgirls and a quick trip to Cuba thrown in, this musical offers a variety of famous songs (Luck be a LadyTake Back Your Mink,Sit DownYou’re Rocking the BoatGuys and DollsIf I Were a Bell) and settings to keep an audience happy, laughing and singing along inside.

Tickets £10 (£8 concessions). Please contact the Coade Hall box office for tickets boxoffice@bryanston.co.uk or T: 01258 484 623.

STOURPAINE MATTERS!

This is another chance for you to help shape the future development of our Parish

The Stourpaine Parish Plan 2007 is being updated.  An Open Day was held on the 6th October in the Village Hall for residents to make comments and voice their opinions.

Following analysis of the comments made, questionnaires have been prepared that will be distributed to all residents in the Parish.

The questionnaires will be delivered between the 12th and 18th November.  We hope that you will complete your questionnaire by the 25th November and then either:

  •  return it to your distributor (you will be given their details with the questionnaires)
  • leave it in the collection box in the Village Shop
  • or wait for it to be collected by your distributor
