This critically acclaimed musical runs at the Riverside Theatre from Friday, September 28 to Saturday, October 6.

Hello Dolly! centres around a bold and enchanting New York-based matchmaker Dolly Levi, who merrily arranges things like furniture, daffodils and...lives. Comprising a score of endearing and comical songs, audiences will be sure to be singing along to ‘It Takes a Woman’, ‘Before the Parade Passes by’, ‘Put On Your SundayClothes’, not forgetting the iconic ‘Hello Dolly!’.
