Come dressed in your Sunday best to parade along the streets of Yonkers and New york "with elegance" , with one of the world's most loved musicals: HELLO, DOLLY! Be wrapped up in Dolly's web of romantic complications as she conspires to marry her "half-a-millionaire" with some of Herman's most famous tunes.
Starring Susan-ann Walker (Xanadu), Robert Grubb (We Will Rock You), Samantha Morley (The Hatpin),Noni McCallum (voice of Hi-5's 'Chatterbox'), Derek Taylor (Phantom of the Opera) and Nicholas McMahon (Shout!), this blockbuster musical featured the songs 'Put On Your Sunday Clothes", "It Only Takes a Moment", "Elegance", "Before the Parade Passes By" and the title song "Hello,Dolly!".
This landmark musical hit won ten Tony Awards and a Grammy and has celebrated three Broadway revivals and international success. In 1969 HELLO DOLLY was adapted for the silver screen starring Barbra Streisand and was nominated for seven Academy Awards.
