Description:

Seeking performers for the "Hello Dolly" Show. Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: Jerry Herman’s energetic Hello, Dolly! is a musical filled with charisma and heart. Matchmaker Dolly Levi is a widow, a matchmaker, and also a professional meddler- but everything changes when she decides that the next match she needs to make is to find someone for herself. Set in New York City at the turn of the century, Hello Dolly! is boisterous and charming from start to finish. Hello, Dolly! features such memorable songs as “Before the Parade Passes By,” “It Only Takes a Moment,” “Put on Your Sunday Clothes,” and - of course - the title number, “Hello, Dolly!” Dolly herself is one of the strongest and richest starring roles for a woman ever written for the musical theatre, and famous Dolly Levis have included Carol Channing, Ethel Merman, Pearl Bailey, Mary Martin, Barbra Streisand, and most recently, Bette Midler and Bernadette Peters. Additional info: Doors open 30 minutes prior to auditions. Please prepare 16-32 bars of a song in the style of the show. Be prepared to learn a short dance combo. You may also be asked to read from the script. Callbacks: Monday, May 19th, by invitation 7-9:30. Production Dates: July 17- August 3. If interested, please apply.
