The Crap Shooters’ Ballet,” Guys and Dolls
How do you make an ongoing dice game in a New York City sewer look exciting? Michael Kidd had no problem crafting “The Crap Shooters’ Ballet” for the 1950 musical comedy hit Guys and Dolls. Hiding out from the law, Manhattan’s Oldest Established Permanent Floating Crap Game had to take to the maze-like sewers under Times Square to keep their marathon game on track. Athletic, macho, and conveying the tension experienced by high rollers, Kidd’s choreography managed to be humorous, impressive, high-kicking fun.
