In 1880's Yonkers a rich and cantankerous widower by the name of Horace Vandergelder is on the lookout for a wife. To help him on his quest he engages the services of professional matchmaker Dolly Gallagher Levi, but little does he know that Dolly has his perfect match in mind from their very first meeting - herself! Now all she has to do is make Horace realize it as well!

Featuring the timeless songs "Put On Your Sunday Clothes," "Before the Parade Passes By," "It Only Takes A Moment," and the title song, Hello, Dolly! is an extravagant old-school treat, following the efforts of the titular matchmaker to land a wealthy and cantankerous widow.

Based on Thornton Wilder's play The Matchmaker, the show debuted on Broadway in 1964 as a storming success, winning an unprecedented 10 Tonys at that year's ceremony and was adapted for the big screen five years later.

This golden age hit musical is under the direction of Eric Vaughn Johnson, featuring a cast of professional performers from across the country. Hello, Dolly! is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Tams-Witmark LLC. www.concordtheatricals.com
MEET OUR DOLLY LEVI!
Elaine Hendrix has brought unforgettable characters to life in Disney’s The Parent Trap, SNL’s Superstar, and Touchstone’s cult favorite Romy & Michele’s High School Reunion. She dazzled as the legendary ‘Alexis Carrington’ in The CW’s Dynasty reboot and is a frequent collaborator of Denis Leary, starring alongside him in FX’s Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll, Universal’s Erase, and FOX’s Super Bowl campaign Dogs Playing Poker.
In the indie world, Hendrix has taken on a range of compelling roles, including Slanted (SXSW Narrative Competition Jury Award winner), Adopt a Highway opposite Ethan Hawke (SXSW premiere), and the highly anticipated horror film Swiped. Her extensive television work includes appearances on fan favorites such as Friends, Two and a Half Men, Criminal Minds, CSI, Transparent, and Maron. On stage, she has starred in Designing Women (original cast), Steel Magnolias, A Streetcar Named Desire, and the Off-Broadway production of It’s Just Sex (original cast).
A Tennessee native, classically trained dancer, and award-winning animal rights and LGTBQ activist, Hendrix has made her mark in unexpected and memorable ways. She was the villainous ‘Alex Wesker’ in the Resident Evil video game franchise, became four collectible Happy Meal toys as ‘G2’ in Inspector Gadget 2, and starred in her first Super Bowl campaign for Levi Strauss & Co. She was even featured as a clue on Jeopardy!
