Jazpyn VanAssche earns role in SAU Theatre production of "Guys and Dolls"

MAGNOLIA, AR (04/18/2022)-- Jazpyn VanAssche will play the role of Nicely-Nicely Johnson in the upcoming SAU Theatre and MHS Theatre production of the musical "Guys and Dolls" on April 21-24, 2022.

VanAssche is a senior Musical Theatre major from Camden, AR.

"Guys and Dolls" is an oddball romantic comedy. Gambler, Nathan Detroit, tries to find the cash to set up the biggest craps game in town while the authorities breathe down his neck; meanwhile, his girlfriend and nightclub performer, Adelaide, laments that they've been engaged for fourteen years. Nathan turns to fellow gambler Sky Masterson, for the dough, and Sky ends up chasing the straight-laced missionary, Sarah Brown, as a result. Guys and Dolls take us from the heart of Times Square to the cafes of Havana, Cuba, and even into the sewers of New York City, but eventually, everyone ends up right where they belong.

For the first time in many years, MHS Theatre and SAU Theatre are coming together to bring you this joint production, performed at the new Magnolia Performing Arts Center at the MHS campus. "Guys and Dolls" will have three evening performances at the MPAC at 7:30 p.m. starting April 21, with an additional 2 p.m. matinee on Sunday, April 24.
