HIGHTSTOWN: Teens showcase spirit of 1940s in spring musical

   HIGHTSTOWN — Ready for some 1940s music?
   Hightstown High School will present “Guys and Dolls” on Friday and Saturday, March 8 and March 9, at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday, March 10, at 3 p.m. in the high school auditorium.
   Tickets will be on sale at the door at $10 for adults and $8 for students and senior citizens.
   The show takes place in New York City in the late 1940s and is about gamblers, chorus girls and save-a-soul mission dolls.
   The main characters are Sky Masterson, played by senior Shlok Shah; Sarah Brown, played by senior Ellen Rothfuss; Nathan Detroit, played by Vincent Stevens; and Adelaide, played by Miranda Contreras-Peterson.
   Nathan bets Sky he can not take mission doll, Sarah, to Havana while he is trying to avoid marrying Adelaide. Throughout the story, the audience sees what happens to the gamblers and chorus girls as the mission dolls try to reform them.
   Under the direction of Catherine E. Anzuini, Diana Horiwitz, William Kamps, Erik Petrushun and Seth Davis, the show features a cast, crew and orchestra of about 90 students, who have been working since December, learning lines, music and dances, building sets and setting lights and sound.
