Hudson Players Announce Unique Dinner and Show Offer for “GUYS AND DOLLS” 

Long Running Theater Group Teams up with Local Restaurant to Offer Their Own
Stimulus Package to Fans of Great Food and Great Theater 

 

 

The Hudson Players are pleased to announce a unique and affordable dinner
and show offer to accompany their upcoming production of the Frank Loesser
musical fable – GUYS AND DOLLS. The show opens April 24, and the Hudson
Players have worked with Hudson’s Restaurant on the Green to offer couples
dinner and a show for $55.00.  This price includes two reserved seating
tickets to GUYS AND DOLLS and dinner for two at Hudson’s Restaurant. 

 

“We really feel this is a great offer for theater lovers in general, but
even more specifically for those fans of Carousel who liked the option of
getting dinner and a show at one price and were looking forward to seeing
GUYS AND DOLLS,” said Gary Maher, producer of GUYS AND DOLLS. “We also
really worked closely with Hudson’s Restaurant to ensure that we could
provide the entire package at a value price. We feel this offer is unmatched
in that they will get to enjoy the great food of Hudson’s Restaurant and see
one of the best musicals ever written at a cost less than many shows are by
themselves.”

 

Available with any evening performance, patrons will have a 6 p.m. seating
at Hudson’s Restaurant where each couple will choose an appetizer, two
entrée’s and one dessert. Gratuity and beverages are not included and the
offer is only valid on the ticketed performance evening. Afterwards, patrons
can relocate down the road to the nearby Barlow Community Center where
reserved seats and a great production of GUYS AND DOLLS will await them. 

 


Performance dates are April 24 & 25 and May 1, 2, 3, 8, 9, 15 & 16. Dinner
and show packages are $55 per couple and are only available by calling the
reservation number at 330-655-8522. Seating is limited. (Dinner and show
package is not available with the May 3rd matinee)


 


Individual show only tickets are also available for $12 and can be purchased
via the web at www.HudsonPlayers.com <http://www.hudsonplayers.com/>  or by
calling 330-655-8522. Curtain time is 8 p.m., with a special 2 p.m. matinee
on May 3.. Group and senior discounts are available. 


 

Based on The Idyll of Sarah Brown and the other characters created by Damon
Runyon, and set in his mythical New York City, this oddball romantic comedy
is considered by many to be the perfect musical comedy. Its excellence and
enjoyability has been recognized over the years with 15 Tony Awards, four
Academy Awards nominations and two Golden Globe Awards including Best
Picture. 

 

Featuring such great songs as “Luck be a Lady”, “Fugue for Tinhorns” and
“Sit Down You’re Rocking the Boat,” Guys AND Dolls soars with the spirit of
Broadway as it introduces us to a cast of vivid legendary characters: Sarah
Brown, the upright but uptight "mission doll," out to reform the evildoers
of Time Square; Sky Masterson, the slick, high-rolling gambler who woos her
on a bet and ends up falling in love; Adelaide, the chronically ill
nightclub performer whose condition is brought on by the fact she's been
engaged to the same man for 14 years; and Nathan Detroit, her devoted
fiancé, desperate as always to find a spot for his infamous floating crap
game. 

 

Everything works out in the end, thanks to the machinations of Abe Burrows
and Jo Swerling's hilarious, fast-paced book and Frank Loesser's bright,
brassy, immortal score, which takes us from the heart of Times Square to the
cafes of Havana, Cuba, and even into the sewers of New York City. Funny and
romantic, Guys And Dolls is ideal for audiences of any age and is not to be
missed fun.
