In a rare confessional mood, Sky describes his world and then tentatively brings Sarah into it (\u201cMy Time of Day\/I\u2019ve Never Been in Love Before\u201d). Use&nbsp;this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theatreworldbackdrops.com\/backdrops\/new-york-noire-006-00020\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">New York Noire backdrop<\/a> to capture the slumbering city in the wee hours before dawn. The monochromatic palette is accented by the very ambers and golds Sky croons over and will help your audience fall in love right along with our characters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For a more intimate feel, you could stage the same scene on this cozy <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theatreworldbackdrops.com\/backdrops\/east-side-street-b-008-00390\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">East Side Street<\/a>. The rich colors and darkened windows, lit by a single street lamp in the center, would encourage the characters to feel like they\u2019re the only two people awake in the whole city. An empty stage with some bare lighting could amplify the mood, bringing Sarah and Sky and the whole audience under the spell of love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Luck Be a Lady<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Another pivotal scene is, of course, the gambling scene where Sky puts everything on the line. This <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theatreworldbackdrops.com\/backdrops\/sewer-interior-016-00040\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sewer Interior<\/a> is an easy choice. Forget the set pieces &#8212; leave your stage clear for your dancers and let this drop do all the work for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019d like to go for a less literal and more flashy\/abstract interpretation of this scene, why not try this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theatreworldbackdrops.com\/backdrops\/casino-royale-018-00150\/budget-rental\/018-00150-4018-MH-01\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Casino Royale backdrop<\/a>? With details including dice, poker chips, roulette, and with ironic touches like the bright yellow \u201cprison\u201d lettering, you\u2019d capture the frenetic joy of this scene while also reminding the audience how much is at stake. \u201cLuck Be a Lady\u201d is such an iconic song &#8211; why not take this number over the top!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Sit Down, You&#8217;re Rocking the Boat!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Arguably one of the funnest numbers of the show is \u201cSit Down You\u2019re Rocking the Boat\u201d &#8212; which takes place, ironically, in a prayer meeting. This is the scene where all of our gamblers (literally or figuratively, depending on the character) \u201csee the light\u201d. You could achieve this with simple lighting and an elaborate set, or your could really go for gold with these <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theatreworldbackdrops.com\/backdrops\/baroque-windows-016-00070\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Baroque Windows<\/a> to amp up the drama. Set your humble prayer meeting against a scrim. Then, reveal this drop just as the song \u201cSit Down You\u2019re Rocking the Boat\u201d really heats up, and you\u2019ll have your audiences feeling the spirit of this hilariously playful mass \u201cconversion\u201d!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Less Traditional Options for <em>Guys and Dolls<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\ndocument.addEventListener(\"DOMContentLoaded\", function(event) { \r\n\tjQuery( '#slider-pro-3-4910' ).sliderPro({\r\n\t\t\/\/width\r\n\t\t\t\twidth: 1000,\r\n\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\/\/height\r\n\t\t\t\theight: 500,\r\n\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\/\/auto play\r\n\t\t\t\tautoplay:  true,\r\n\t\tautoplayOnHover: 'none',\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tautoplayDelay: 5000,\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\tarrows: true,\r\n\t\tbuttons: true,\r\n\t\tsmallSize: 500,\r\n\t\tmediumSize: 1000,\r\n\t\tlargeSize: 3000,\r\n\t\tfade: true,\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\/\/thumbnail\r\n\t\tthumbnailArrows: true,\r\n\t\tthumbnailWidth: 120,\r\n\t\tthumbnailHeight: 120,\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\tthumbnailsPosition: 'bottom',\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\tcenterImage: true,\r\n\t\timageScaleMode: 'cover',\r\n\t\tallowScaleUp: true,\r\n\t\t\t\tstartSlide: 0,\r\n\t\tloop: true,\r\n\t\tslideDistance: 5,\r\n\t\tautoplayDirection: 'normal',\r\n\t\ttouchSwipe: true,\r\n\t\tfullScreen: true,\r\n\t});\r\n});\r\n<\/script>\r\n\r\n\t\t<div id=\"slider-pro-3-4910\" class=\"slider-pro\">\r\n\t\t\t<!---- slides div start ---->\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"sp-slides\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sp-slide\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img class=\"sp-image\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"BROWNSTONE ROW HOMES Professional Scenic Guys and Dolls Backdrop\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theatreworldbackdrops.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/ultimate-responsive-image-slider\/assets\/css\/images\/blank.gif\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.theatreworldbackdrops.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/BROWNSTONE-ROW-HOME-with-Frame-e1597336511493.jpg\" \/>\r\n\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sp-slide\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img class=\"sp-image\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"IRONWORKS Professional Scenic Sweeney Todd Header and Legs Set\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theatreworldbackdrops.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/ultimate-responsive-image-slider\/assets\/css\/images\/blank.gif\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.theatreworldbackdrops.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/IRONWORKS-HEADER-LEGS-SET-with-Frame-e1597427105628.jpg\" \/>\r\n\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t<!---- slides div end ---->\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<!-- slides thumbnails div end -->\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<style>\r\n\/* Layout 3 *\/\r\n\/* border *\/\r\n#slider-pro-3-4910 .sp-selected-thumbnail {\r\n\tborder: 4px solid #000000;\r\n}\r\n\r\n\/* font + color *\/\r\n.title-in  {\r\n\tfont-family: Arial !important;\r\n\tcolor: #FFFFFF !important;\r\n\tbackground-color: #000000 !important;\r\n\topacity: 0.7 !important;\r\n}\r\n.desc-in  {\r\n\tfont-family: Arial !important;\r\n\tcolor: #FFFFFF !important;\r\n\tbackground-color: #00000 !important;\r\n\topacity: 0.7 !important;\r\n}\r\n\r\n\/* bullets color *\/\r\n.sp-button  {\r\n\tborder: 2px solid #000000 !important;\r\n}\r\n.sp-selected-button  {\r\n\tbackground-color: #000000 !important;\r\n}\r\n\r\n\/* pointer color - bottom *\/\r\n.sp-selected-thumbnail::before {\r\n\tborder-bottom: 5px solid #000000 !important;\r\n}\r\n.sp-selected-thumbnail::after {\r\n\tborder-bottom: 13px solid #000000 !important;\r\n}\r\n\r\n\/* pointer color - top *\/\r\n\r\n\/* full screen icon *\/\r\n.sp-full-screen-button::before {\r\n    color: #FFFFFF !important;\r\n}\r\n\r\n\/* hover navigation icon color *\/\r\n.sp-next-arrow::after, .sp-next-arrow::before {\r\n\tbackground-color: #FFFFFF !important;\r\n}\r\n.sp-previous-arrow::after, .sp-previous-arrow::before {\r\n\tbackground-color: #FFFFFF !important;\r\n}\r\n\r\n#slider-pro-3-4910 .title-in {\r\n\tcolor: #FFFFFF !important;\r\n\tfont-weight: bolder;\r\n\ttext-align: center;\r\n}\r\n\r\n#slider-pro-3-4910 .title-in-bg {\r\n\tbackground: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.7);
