Tony Award®-winning Broadway legend Betty Buckley stars inHELLO, DOLLY! – the universally acclaimed smash that NPR calls “the best show of the year!” and the Los Angeles Times says “distills the mood-elevating properties of the American musical at its giddy best.”Winner of four Tony Awards including Best Musical Revival, director Jerry Zaks’ “gorgeous” new production (Vogue) is “making people crazy happy!” (The Washington Post). Breaking box office records week after week and receiving unanimous raves on Broadway, thisHELLO, DOLLY! pays tribute to the original work of legendary director/choreographer Gower Champion – hailed both then and now as one of the greatest stagings in musical theater history. Rolling Stone calls it “a must-see event. A musical comedy dream. If you’re lucky enough to score a ticket, you’ll be seeing something historic. Wow, wow, wow, indeed!”
 
Led by four-time Tony Award-winning director Jerry Zaks and choreographed by Tony Award winner Warren Carlyle, the entire creative team of the Broadway production will reprise their roles for the National Tour of HELLO, DOLLY!, including four-time Tony Award winner Santo Loquasto (Scenic & Costume Design), six-time Tony Award winner Natasha Katz (Lighting Design), Tony Award winner Scott Lehrer (Sound Design), Andy Einhorn (Music Direction), Tony Award winner Larry Hochman (Orchestrations), Tony Award winner Don Pippin (Vocal Arrangements), David Chase (Dance Arrangements), and Telsey + Company (Casting).
HELLO, DOLLY!  began performances on Broadway on March 15, 2017, and officially opened on April 20, 2017. Having broken the record for best first day of ticket sales in Broadway history, the box office record at the Shubert Theatre twelve times, and shattering The Shubert Organization’s all-time record ten times, the production ended its historic Broadway run on August 25, 2018.

Intermission Tip

Dallas Summer Musicals never disappoints! We live around an hour outside of Dallas. The show starts at 7:30pm. My husband gets off of work around 6pm. Are you seeing the issue we are having? 
 
One thing is for certain, we will hit Dallas traffic. Dallas traffic ALWAYS disappoints. And we are ALWAYS hungry when we get to the show. I discovered you can pre-order food and drinks at intermission! This is a HUGE thing for us as the lines can get long and you want to make the most out of your 20ish minute intermission break. 

How to Order Ahead

We typically order the cheese platter. It never disappoints, plus they serve it with HONEY. Yes, you read that right and omg – so good. Anyways. There are 2 ways to order. First, there is a table before you enter the theater that can take your order. You pay ahead of time so at intermission you just take your number to the hostess, they seat you and your food is already there! Ordering is also available via the Noble App.
 
Here is information on pre-order from the app:
 
The Music Hall is working with Noble to enhance your theatre experience. Say goodbye to long lines by following these three simple steps:

1) DOWNLOAD – Search NOBLE BAR in the App Store or Google Play Store

2) ORDER – Place your order on your phone*

3) SKIP THE LINE – Pick up your drink at the NOBLE BAR on the 1st floor near aisle 5 OR on the 2nd floor, between aisle 8 and 9.

The Noble app is available for upcoming shows at the Music Hall. Learn more about Noble HERE.

Enjoy the show!

*Phones must be silenced and put away during the show!
