How high do you predict gas prices will get this summer?

— Steve Bradt, brewer, Lawrence
Lawrence Henderson isn't worried about young people losing interest in the bootlegging and illegal gambling of the 1930s. "As long as we have the History Channel, people are going to know about gangsters," Henderson says. "There's an American love affair with gangsters." And that, in part, is what keeps interest alive in "Guys and Dolls," which Henderson stars in starting Friday at University Theatre. The musical, by Manhattan-born Damon Runyon, tells the story of Nathan Detroit, who is desperate to find money for his crap game. He bets friend Sky Masterson $1,000 that Masterson can't convince a local Salvation Army girl, Sgt. Sarah Brown, to go to Cuba with him. When Masterson wins the bet and ends up falling in love with Brown, he bets the members of the crap game that if he wins a roll of the dice, they will all have to go to the Salvation Army. He wins, and the gamblers visit the mission and repent of their sins.Full story.
