Guys and Dolls Review
At the Playhouse Theatre, the musical Guys and Dolls took place. It was presented on
11/8/13, at 7:30 pm. The ticket price to the musical was $12. The actors and directors, along with the back stage crew were responsible for the event. The show consisted of a love story along with drama and action. It also consisted of many songs that were accompanied by different dances. Overall, the show was amazing but had a few setbacks. Some of the things that made the show simply great were: the actors themselves and the dances that were incorporated into the show. One set back was the bright lights.
The actors themselves were a huge part of the show and helped the show become a success. The actors are extremely important in a show because it’s up to them to make or break a show. They are also the main point of attention from the audience and therefore even the slightest mistake from them will not go unseen. In the show, the actors were extremely talented. Every single one of them was amazing and it seemed to me as they did not make any mistakes at all and if they did, they covered them up pretty well. That is the sign of an amazing actor, not that they don’t make mistakes, because everyone makes mistakes, but that they cover them up and pretend like it was part of the show. The actors in the show were not only amazing actors but also amazing dancers especially in the ballet and tap-dancing part. The acting was superb. For example: the specific actress that is in the character of an old lady with a limp holding the basket of apples, is a superb actress and made the limp look extremely realistic. All of this added up and contributed to the show being a great success.
The dances that were incorporated into the show also helped it become a success. The dances are also extremely important in a show because since this show was a musical it needed songs in it. When the actors present a song, they must move around to keep the audience entertained and
