A revival of the musical “Guys and Dolls” will open on Broadway in the spring of 2009 at the Nederlander Theatre, the producer Howard Panter announced Tuesday. The show will be directed by Des McAnuff and choreographed by Sergio Trujillo. The most recent Broadway revival of the Frank Loesser musical closed in 1995.
“Guys and Dolls” had its premiere on Broadway in 1950. In 1955, director Joseph Mankiewicz made the musical into a movie starring Marlon Brando, Jean Simmons, and Frank Sinatra.
