Why see Hello, Dolly!?
Last chance to see - Bette Midler returns!
Don't miss your last chance to see Bette Midler* in Hello, Dolly!
Featuring the songs 'Put On Your Sunday Clothes' and 'It Only Takes A Moment', Hello, Dolly! is an extravagant old-school treat, following the efforts of the titular matchmaker to land a wealthy and cantankerous widow. Returning to the title role is the iconic, award winning Bette Midler who will star for the final six weeks, taking over from fellow Broadway icon Bernadette Peters. Don't miss your chance to catch the remarkable Ms Midler in this iconic role, and your chance to say Goodbye, Dolly!
Based on Thornton Wilder's play The Matchmaker, the show debuted on Broadway in 1964, starring Carol Channing in the titular role. A storming success, it won an unprecedented 10 Tonys at that year's ceremony and was adapted for the big screen five years later, with a cast led by Barbra Streisand and a young Michael Crawford. This 2017 revival is directed by four time Tony winner Jerry Zaks (Sister Act), and won four 2017 Tony Awards, including Best Revival and Best Actress (Better Midler). The show also has three Drama Desk Awards to its name, also including Best Actress.
*Please note, at Sunday Matinees from July 22 - August 19, the role of Dolly will be played by Donna Murphy and additionally, Ms. Murphy will perform on Monday August 20 at 7PM

Fun, Innocent, Entertaining!
Somewhere in the world Bette Midler has a shelf, and on it sits three Grammy Awards, four Golden Globes, three Emmys and a special Tony Award. If that's not a clear indication of a top-notch career then head to the Shubert Theatre where adoring fans line
