Pop Culture #4

Last night I attended the musical "Guys & Dolls" at the Tucker Theatre. To sum it up, it was about a gambler who has been engaged for 14 years; his fionce was ready to get married but all he was worried about was finding a place for his poker game. Overall, I enjoyed it; it was really interesting to watch and think that people used to dress and go about their business like that. I honestly think I was born in the wrong century; I absolutely love the 80's. The music, clothing, dancing, etc., it all just woohs me! What's even greater is that everything from then is coming back now.

    Did they change the setting to the 1980s? If I recall correctly, Guys and Dolls is set in the 1930s. It would be really interesting to see how they'd change the staging to make it work in the 80s.

      The handout they gave us said 80's .. I was questioning this also because we are talking about this musical in my theatre class and it's in the 30s. They could have made a mistake on the print out but I didn't want to test my jugdement so I went with what they said.
