K-STATE 1xbet sports betting TO PRESENT BROADWAY MUSICAL 'GUYS AND DOLLS'

MANHATTAN -- The Kansas State University 1xbet sports betting and dance programs and the K-State department of music will present the Broadway musical "Guys and Dolls" at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 12-14 and a matinee performance at 2:30 p.m. Nov. 15, all in McCain Auditorium.

The source material for the script of "Guys and Dolls" was taken from "Broadway Stories" written by Damon Runyon, a native of Manhattan.

In K-State's production, set in the Big Apple in the middle of the 20th century, a man named Nathan Detroit bets Sky Masterson that he can't get a girl to travel with him to Cuba. Meanwhile, Nathan stays behind to deal with his own relationship troubles.

"Guys and Dolls" has been called one of the most successful Broadway musicals of all time. The film production featured an all-star cast of Frank Sinatra, Marlon Brando and Jean Simmons, and received two Golden Globe awards and four Oscar nominations.

Tickets are for the general public, for seniors and military, and for students and children. They can be purchased at the McCain Auditorium box office from 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. or by calling McCain at 785-532-6428 during box office hours.
