It all begins with a bet. Nathan Detroit bets high-rolling gambler Sky Masterson that Sky cannot persuade Save-A-Soul Missionary Sister Sarah Brown to accompany him on a trip to Cuba. While the worldly Sky works his charms on a wary Sarah, Nathan is doing his best to stay outside the matrimonial clutches of his long-suffering fiancée, Miss Adelaide. "Guys and Dolls" is a fable about what happens to gambling men and the women who long to tame them. Set in the colorful world of New York City in the mid 20th century, the romantic and funny "Guys And Dolls" is populated with gangsters and gamblers, missionary dolls and scantily clad showgirls, and one the great musical scores in the history of American theatre.

The Castle Craig community mourns the loss of Jill Riggles, while celebrating her spirit.
Dear Friends,
We would like to invite you to come together in memory of Jill on Sunday, November 20th, from 5:00–8:00 p.m. at the Playhouse. We will be holding a Potluck Open House where we can gather to share memories, stories, tears, and joys in Jill's honor. Please feel free to bring a dish to share. We are also asking if anyone has any photos of Jill, please considering sending an electronic copy to Mark or me if possible—we'd like to create a photo montage to place behind the piano at the theater.
We would also like to share that, although we know it will be difficult, we are planning on going ahead with our holiday show, as we know that is what Jill would have wanted us to do. Our plan is to make this a tribute to her wonderfully uplifting spirit and love of music. We are planning on asking for donations in Jill's honor to be given to the United Churches of Durham, where she was choir director, and her husband Elven is minister. We also hope to sell handmade scarves and angel ornaments lovingly created by Sara and Rebecca LoPresti and their friends.
We realize that this is a difficult time for all of us, and we hope that coming together to honor Jill in this way will help all of us to heal. She so loved the theater and the CCP family—she often told me that when she was ill, it was the theater and all of us that she missed the most. I hope that many of you will be able to join us on the 20th.
With much love,
Mark, Donna, Jenney, Warren, and Melanie
Written by our own Roger Cerbie, the last of the Pinky trilogy.
