Performers with the Gainesville High School Theatre group will be trying their hands at bringing "Guys and Dolls" to life for their season closer.

The group will perform the musical at 7:30 p.m. tonight and Friday in the Pam Ware Performing Arts Center on the school's campus at 830 Century Place, Gainesville.

"Guys and Dolls" follows an ensemble of gamblers, who are trying to raise enough capital for a trip to Cuba, and the women who love them - including missionary Sarah Brown.

The original version features the classic tune, "Luck Be a Lady," which was made popular by crooner Frank Sinatra.

"Guys and Dolls" will be the theater group's sixth production this school year.

Tickets for the show are $5 each and will be sold the day of each performance from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. in the Gainesville high front office.

Tickets may also be reserved by emailing the drama group. Reserved tickets will be available for pick up from 6:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. on the day of the performance at the box office. Tickets not picked up by 7 p.m. will be made available for purchase.
