South Jackson presents Hello Dolly opens April 22

Community Playhouse’s production of the Broadway musical/comedy Hello Dolly will open on April 22 at 7:30 p.m. at the South Jackson Civic Center in Tullahoma. A complimentary reception will be held immediately following the opening night performance to give audience members a chance to meet the cast and crew. Over 70 people from nine local communities are cast in the production.

Additional evening performances are slated for April 23, 29, and 30 at 7:30 p.m. with Sunday matinee performances on April 25 and May 1 at 2 p.m. Full houses are expected so early ticket reservations and pickup are recommended.

“Hello Dolly” is filled with wonderful characters, dazzling costumes, and show-stopping dance numbers. Based on the Thornton Wilder play “The Matchmaker,” this musical by Michael Stewart and Jerry Herman has become a beloved classic for both young and old alike.
