Fifty years ago today, Billy Wilson's all-Black production of "Guys and Dolls" revival opened on Broadway.

Both directed and choreographed by Wilson, the revival featured an all-Black cast, new Motown-style musical arrangements, and slight updates to the book. Critics praised the revival for its ability to take a refreshingly new look at the musical, which had been revived previously at New York City Center.

The revival also kicked off several performers' careers, including Ken Page, then 22, who played Nicely-Nicely.

Broadway may be theater’s most famous destination, but Black storytelling has never needed one stage to make an impact. 🖤

From Harlem’s National Black Theatre to Penumbra Theatre Company in St. Paul, Black creatives built spaces where our stories could be told freely, new voices could flourish, and artists like August Wilson, Ntozake Shange, and Chadwick Boseman could leave their mark.
