Dolly Levi is a glamorous and wise cracking woman with a big heart. She is also a professional matchmaker focussed on bringing love to the great and good of Manhattan.

However, she soon realises that one of the suitors brings more than a little sparkle to her own eye too... with hilarious consequences!

Boasting a dazzling score which has inspired great artists such as Louis Armstrong and Frank Sinatra, this bold and brassy musical is full of fantastic numbers such as Put on Your Sunday Clothes, Before the Parade Passes By and, of course, the show-stopping title number Hello Dolly!

Hello Dolly! was also immortalised in film in 1969, starring Barbra Streisand and Michael Crawford, when it was nominated for seven Academy Awards. The music and lyrics are by the great Jerry Herman who also wrote La Cage Aux Folles, Mack and Mabel and Mame.
