Hello, Dolly
Directed by Ben Frimmer
Music Direction by Greg Chrzczon
Choreography by Kari Ann Sweeney
One of America’s most beloved musicals is back where it belongs – Curtain Call’s mainstage. Hello, Dolly! is set in New York, during the 1890s. When irrepressible matchmaker Dolly Gallagher Levi is hired to arrange a marriage for the miserly half-millionaire Horace Vandergelder, she finds him the perfect mate – herself! Employing a host of other talents - like corset re-boning, ear piercing, pierced ears re-plugging, and dance instructing - Dolly attempts to win over her unsuspecting “husband to be” before he gets hitched to somebody else. Brimming with joyful tunes from “Put On Your Sunday Clothes,” “Before the Parade Passes By” and “It Only Takes a Moment” to the irresistible title song, “Hello, Dolly!” is a delectable treat for musical theater lovers of all ages. Winner of 10 Tony Awards, including Best Musical, Dolly! is the show-stopping “perfect match” for every musical fan.
