🎭✨ Broadway’s beloved musical comedy Guys and Dolls comes to the Dixon Historic Theatre this July! ✨🎭

Presented by Dixon Stage Left and the Dixon Historic Theatre, Guys and Dolls is a hilarious, heartwarming classic filled with big laughs, unforgettable characters, romance, and some of musical theatre’s most iconic songs.

Set in the colorful world of Damon Runyon’s mythical New York City, the story follows gambler Nathan Detroit as he scrambles to organize the biggest craps game in town while avoiding the authorities — and his longtime fiancée Adelaide, who’s been waiting fourteen years to get married! Meanwhile, smooth-talking gambler Sky Masterson unexpectedly falls for straight-laced missionary Sarah Brown, leading to a whirlwind adventure from Times Square to Havana and beyond.

With dazzling music, energetic dance numbers, and timeless charm, Guys and Dolls is the perfect summer theatre event for audiences of all ages.

🇺🇸🎬 HOLLYWOOD REAGAN: A DOUBLE FEATURE AT THE DIXON 🎬🇺🇸

Join us on Saturday, July 18 for a special celebration of Dixon's most famous hometown star with Hollywood Reagan: A Double Feature at the Dixon Historic Theatre!

Before he became the 40th President of the United States, Ronald Reagan was a young actor inspired by the movies he watched right here at The Dixon. As Reagan's hometown theatre, we're proud to honor his Hollywood career with two classic films that helped tell his remarkable story.

🎞 3:00 PM – Kings Row (1942)
One of Reagan's most acclaimed performances, in the film that inspired his famous campaign slogan, "Where's the rest of me?"

🎞 7:30 PM – Hellcats of the Navy (1957)
A unique piece of Hollywood history starring Ronald Reagan alongside Nancy Reagan. This was also one of two films that premiered at the Dixon Historic Theatre, making it especially meaningful to our community.

⭐ During the event, guests will have the opportunity to view a signed Hellcats of the Navy movie poster on display inside the theatre.

Even more special, Hellcats of the Navy and International Squadron (1941) both premiered at the Dixon Historic Theatre, connecting our stage directly to Reagan's Hollywood legacy.

Thanks to the generous support of State Farm Agent Chris Hammitt, tickets are just $2 each!

🎟 Kings Row – 3:00 PM
