Hi, I'm playing Percussion 1 for the production of Hello, Dolly! Which includes, Glockenspiel, Xylophone, Vibraphone, 3 x Timpani's, Suspended Cymbal, 2 x Trap Tables (For Sticks & Auxiliary Percussion), with the addition of Tubular Bells. What is the ideal arrangement of these instruments to best play my part?

All in a single line. And a hoverboard to go back and forth.

I would ask a percussionist! 

But, more seriously, you should check out a site that shows percussion set ups for numerous musicals, including Andy Blanco's setup for Hello Dolly at the Shubert (scroll down the page or use find on page function).  Hope you find it helpful:  https://www.themillermachine.com/setup-shots/
