Students from Downers South High present the musical, “Hello, Dolly!” which runs Thursday, April 14 through Saturday, April 16 at 7 p.m., with a matinee performance on Sunday, April 17 at 3 p.m. Performances will be held in the DGS Auditorium. Tickets are $8 for adults, and $7 for students and seniors, and can be purchased either in the Student Activities Office or at the door.
"Hello Dolly!" tells the story of a New York-based matchmaker, Dolly Levi, who merrily arranges things... like furniture and daffodils and lives. A widow, she takes a trip to see a "half-a-millionaire" Yonkers merchant named Horace Vandergelder. She proceeds to weave a web of romantic complications involving him, his two clerks, a pretty milliner and her assistant. Eventually, of course, all is sorted out, and everyone ends up with the right person.
