The Tony award winning and critically acclaimed Guys and Dolls is coming to Theatre Royal Wakefield.
From the bars of Havana to the streets of Manhattan and set against a backdrop of Prohibition era New York, Wakefield Youth Music Theatre presents one of the best loved musicals ever to have performed on Broadway!
With music and lyrics by Frank Loesser, Guys and Dolls tells the tale of Sky Masterson, a high rolling gambler, who places a bet to win over the heart of Sarah, a puritanical missionary.
This feel-good show first premiered on Broadway in 1950 and features hits such as Sit Down You're Rockin' the Boat, Luck be a Lady, Marry the Man Today and the title song Guys and Dolls.
Come and experience the hustle and bustle of New York City right here at Theatre Royal Wakefield, as our exceptionally talented young cast return to the stage!




We are proud to announce a step forward in our commitment to making Theatre Royal Wakefield an accessible and welcoming place to visit.
We have teamed up with Vicky Ackroyd to create an audio description of the show, as well as vivid character profiles of the five principal roles. Get a flavour of the show, set, costumes, and characters by listening to the short audio below.
