HELLO, DOLLY!
Music and lyrics by Jerry Herman
Book by Michael Stewart
Directed by David Hock and Choreographed by Bill Hotaling SMTC follows it's first-ever New Year's Eve gala (2014's The Producers) with this beloved musical comedy about Dolly Levi - a spunky, irascible matchmaker in turn-of-the-century New York who tries to bring romance to her fellow townsfolk - and herself. Eternal showtunes like "Put on Your Sunday Clothes", and the title song pepper this delightful score, featuring one of Broadway's most well-known characters. Hello, Dolly will kick off a New Year's Eve Gala evening that will include the show, and a party afterward to ring in the New Year.
