The Matchmaker

Mar 5 – Apr 10, 2016 in Goodman's Albert Theatre

2 hours and 40 minutes with one intermission


Before the world fell in love with Hello, Dolly!, there was The Matchmaker

Cunning, crafty and thoroughly modern, Dolly Gallagher Levi knows a good catch when she sees one. So when the wealthy Horace Vandergelder hires her to find him a wife, Dolly doesn’t need to look far to find his perfect mate. The Matchmaker is an uproarious romp that reminds us to embrace the unexpected in our lives.

The Matchmaker is recommended for audiences age 12 and older.
