Guys and Dolls

Guys and Dolls at OneAmerica Mainstage - Indiana Repertory Theater

Big personalities, crooked bets and unexpected romance keep this Broadway comedy moving. Others are made with the heart. In Guys and Dolls, both put everything on the line, and on May 1, 2027, at 5:00 PM, you can watch the gamble unfold at the OneAmerica Mainstage at Indiana Repertory Theater in Indianapolis.

The story pulls you in fast. One gambler chases a missionary on a wager. Another dodges marriage to his long-engaged fiancée while scrambling to keep a dice game alive. Two worlds collide in New York, and nobody gets to stay comfortable. Romance, bluster and conviction crash into each other, and the result is the kind of musical comedy that lets you laugh at people's bad ideas and root for them anyway. It draws on Damon Runyon's stories and characters, so the cast of schemers and believers feels vivid from the start.

There's real craft behind the fun. Frank Loesser wrote the music and lyrics, and Jo Swerling and Abe Burrows wrote the book. This Indiana Repertory Theater production is directed by Lili-Anne Brown, with choreography by Breon Arzell and music direction by Andra Velis Simon. That's a creative team shaping a golden-age favorite right here in Indianapolis. If you want a night out that feels lively, romantic and a little mischievous, this is a smart place to put your money down. Grab your seats for Guys and Dolls in Indianapolis and be there when the dice start rolling.
