With just 24 hours of shore leave, three sailors are on a whirlwind tour of the city that never sleeps and they're eager to experience all that New York has to offer, including a chance to discover the girl of their dreams. GMT offers a rare opportunity to see one of America's greatest musical comedies. With its glorious score and sensational dancing, On the Town is a sparkling salute to life in the Big Apple.
Guys & Dolls
Music and Lyrics by Frank Loesser. Book by Jo Swerling and Abe Burrows.

Gamblers, gangsters, strippers and sniffles...It's Guys & Dolls, but not as you know it. GMT gives its unique, boutique treatment to this Broadway classic with a cast of triple-threat performers playing multiple roles in the intimate space of the Brian Cox Studio at SYT. Pared down, but still full of punch, GMT breathes new life into the sharp, comic sketches and show-stopping songs of this musical fable.
