AUDITION NOTICE: HELLO, DOLLY!

Step into the sparkling world of Hello, Dolly!—the classic musical bursting with charm, wit, and high-stepping fun! Follow the unstoppable Dolly Levi as she cheerfully meddles, matches, and masterminds her way through Yonkers, all set to iconic songs like “Put On Your Sunday Clothes,” “Before the Parade Passes By,” “It Only Takes a Moment,” and of course “Hello, Dolly!”

With big laughs, bold characters, romance, and a lively ensemble (including kids!), this show promises magic—and we want YOU to be a part of it!

EVERYONE—ADULTS, TEENS & KIDS—ARE WELCOME TO AUDITION!

We can’t wait to see you shine!
