Love is in the air this spring as Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre presents the famous matchmaking musical Hello, Dolly! The beloved Broadway show, which won 10 Tony Awards including Best Musical, is live on stage March 25 through May 2.
Based on the play “The Matchmaker” by Thornton Wilder, Hello, Dolly! is the story of Dolly Levi, who is filled with personality and an agenda. A turn-of-the-century matchmaker, Dolly is supposed to be arranging a match for the wealthy Horace Vandergelder – but she’d much prefer to keep him to herself. Horace has his sights set on a pretty young widow, but Dolly doesn’t give up on getting her man.
Award-winning composer Jerry Herman’s score includes such great songs as “It Takes A Woman,” “Put On Your Sunday Clothes,” “So Long Dearie,” “Ribbons Down My Back,” “It Only Takes A Moment,” and of course, “Hello, Dolly!”
Renowned Chicago actress Iris Lieberman makes her Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre debut as the meddling title character, while Mark Goetzinger of Indianapolis reprises the role of half-a-millionaire Horace Vandergelder.
There are 44 performances of Hello, Dolly! scheduled in the intimate space of Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre. Tickets range from $35 to $58, and include Chef Odell Ward’s specially prepared buffet, including a fruit & salad bar, unlimited coffee and tea. Ample free parking is available.
