Guys and Dolls

Thu 18th Jul 2024 to Sat 27th Jul 2024, various times

Will Adelaide finally get her man to settle down? Will Sister Sarah see beyond the face value of a gambler? Will General Cartwright let herself rock the boat?

The timeless, smash hit Broadway musical rolls its dice this July, bringing colourful New York street scenes into the Welsh open air. Frank Loesser’s legendary musical shares the tale of likeable rogue Nathan Detroit and his underworld fraternity as their gambling crap game takes them on a Mission too far!

Making a welcome return to the Festival following his brilliant 2023 production of Addams Family, director Gregory Ashton leads this feel-good sensation, famed for its wit, heart and unforgettable toe-tapping score.

A fydd Adelaide yn llwyddo i gael ei dyn i setlo o’r diwedd? A fydd y Chwaer Sarah yn gweld y tu hwnt i wynebwerth gamblwr? A fydd y Cadfridog Cartwright yn gadael i’w hun siglo’r cwch?

Bydd sioe gerdd hynod boblogaidd Broadway yn taflu’i dis ym mis Gorffennaf, gan ddod â golygfeydd stryd lliwgar Efrog Newydd i awyr agored Cymru. Mae sioe gerdd chwedlonol Frank Loesser yn rhannu hanes y cymeriad twyllodrus hoffus Nathan Detroit a’i frawdoliaeth tanddaearol wrth i’w gêm gamblo taflu dis fynd â nhw ar un Genhadaeth yn ormod!

Yn dychwelyd i’r Ŵyl yn dilyn ei gynhyrchiad gwych o Addams Family yn 2022, y cyfarwyddwr Gregory Ashton sy’n cyflwyno’r wledd hwyliog yma, sy’n enwog am ei ffraethineb, ei chalon a’i sgôr bachog bythgofiadwy.
