Say hello to Dolly at the 5th Avenue Theatre

BY PAM STEVENS | EDITOR

Hell,o Dolly! has come back to Seattle after 27 years and is being performed on the stage at the 5th Avenue Theater in Seattle. This fun and whimsical musical stars film and stage star Jenifer Lewis and Pat Cashman, a local TV favorite and star of Almost Live!

You may remember the production’s most well-known songs including of course, “Hello Dolly!” and “It Only Takes a Moment”. Both live up to their reputation in this stage performance.

On opening night, Lewis got off to a bit of a rough start with a missed line, however, that was all it took and she was off to a brilliant performance the rest of the evening.

Her voice was incredible and her costumes are not to be missed.

Another favorite that evening was Suzanne Bouchard who played hat shop owner, Irene Malloy.

Bouchard’s voice was so smooth and she was able to bring her character to life through her stunning performance and musical numbers. Even with a little costume trouble, she made the performance unforgettable.

If you haven’t seen Hello, Dolly! this production is a must-see.

Hell, Dolly! is playing now through March 29 at the 5th Avenue Theatre. Tickets can purchase by calling 206-625-1900 or toll free at 888-5th-4TIX.

Tickets are priced from $22 to $81.
