Synopsis
Prepare to be dazzled by Wilder’s sparkling farce about love and class. At the heart of this story - which was the inspiration for the beloved musical Hello, Dolly! - the resourceful Dolly Levi, a professional meddler with a knack for arranging other people’s lives (and she may just uncover a few surprises for herself while she’s at it). When Dolly is called upon to find a wife for infamous curmudgeon Horace Vandergelder, hilarity ensues. Fueled by chaos and mistaken identity, with twists and turns aplenty, The Matchmaker celebrates the delightful messiness of human connection and the notion that everyone deserves a little adventure.
