Seeing Guys and Dolls live was a great experience as a whole, and I enjoyed myself throughly. Understandably there were a few things that I disagreed with, so I will nitpick and pretend that my qualifications…

    meaningful. I heard rumors that it would be good, but knowing that it would be 3 hours long, turned me off. The play itself was not as big of an issue as the time it took for it to end. At the beginning, the high pitch screech was a complete shock and scared a lot of people which was funny. The fact that the play turned out to be a musical was interesting.

    be going to a play of mystery. An expectation for viewers to be able to get engaged with solving the mysteries of the play. The joy or surprise of an escalating story that ends in a wicked curveball. Expectation of an extremely amazing production, was far from the reality of what was going to be seen at the production. The play “Dead Man’s Cell Phone” appeared to be an overhyped drama that lacked the ability to hook me as a viewer because of the storyline itself, the acting of the play or…
