User Reviews
Read what our TM Insiders had to say about Guys And Dolls!
I enjoyed it and I thought it was good, but I didnt like how Lauren Gram and Oliver Platt were thought of as the stars simply because of their fame. Lauren was pretty good, I thought and I really cant say anything bad about her because she was so sweet to the fans afterwards, but I think their status took away from the appreciation for the real stars, Kate Jennings Grant and Craig Bierko.

I tend to agree with Maureen. I enjoyed seeing Oliver Platt, but he did little for the part. We adore Lauren Graham, but after Gilmore Girls we struggled accepting her as Adelaide. I agree that most of the supporting cast is quite strong. Its not a bad show, its just not special. That said, Nicely Nicelys rendition of Sit Down, Youre Rocking the boat is now firmly on my list of top 10 musical numbers Ive ever seen. I dare you to watch it and not bust out in enthusiastic applause.

Review: Great cast and great production! by laracs
I really enjoyed this. I thought Oliver Platt was funny and could sing just fine. Lauren Graham did a great job singing and dancing and was very funny. Bierko and Grant were great as the romantic leads, and the supporting cast was really teriffic, especially Nicely Nicely. I loved it!
