PLYMOUTH — “Guys and Dolls,” a classic Broadway musical, is coming to the Flying Monkey Performance Center for a six-show run Jan. 18-22.

Trish Lindberg, producing artistic director of the Educational Theater Collaborative, programmed the show for the group’s 27th season because of its matchless collection of characters.

“I love love love the characters,” she said. “They’re so full of life, so authentic. This show has such a big heart.”
