It looks terrific. And honestly, it makes me a little sad I'm not working there this year because those costumes are so fun and bright! (Not to mention they are designed by William Ivey Long, my favorite costume designer of all time).

I'd very much like to go back and see this show, if possible.

It looks miles better than the recently closed revival.

Highly recommended. Here's my review for BWW:

I was in Maine last week. I found out on the way up that my family looked up what was playing to see if it is a show I would be interested in seeing. They saw it was Guys and Dolls and said "Nah, I don't think he likes that show."



I couldn't bring myself to remind them that it is my favorite show of all time.

It looks and sounds miles better than the recent revival. Great harmonies and voices and talent. Those are legit Ivey costumes and the regional theatre gives it an apropos rusty-around-the-edges feel.

The production looks fantastic and the leads sound great. Though the 90's revival sets and costumes look a little used to say the least. Pittsburgh Civic Light Opera should maybe invest in a light refurbishment before renting them out again.

My only objection to using the 92 revival costumes is that "Bushel and a Peck" outfits pretty much DEMAND that you copy the "chicken" choreography.

Christian Hoff and Richard Kind are fantastic choices for these roles. Too bad they didn't do the revival.
