Cast for the Royal Exchange's Guys and Dolls announced

The Royal Exchange in Manchester have really been upping the ante as far as their Christmas musicals are concerned. Last year's Sweet Charity was a stonker, their Into the Woods was something special, and 2014/15's Little Shop of Horrors was basically perfection. This year see them tackle Broadway classic Guys and Dolls in a co-production with Talawa Theatre Company and by the crin (as my Aunty Mary would say - a bit of Wigan dialect for you there...) just take a look at this bushel and a peck's worth of beauties!

Allison - Koko Basigara
Mimi - Evonnee Bentley-Holder
Liverlips Louis - Nathanael Campbell
