Big Deal Productions is thrilled to present The Matchmaker Thornton Wilder's uproarious farce about love and money stars the irrepressible busybody, Dolly Gallagher Levi, who inspired the Broadway musical Hello, Dolly! Horace Vandergelder, a wealthy merchant in 19th Century Yonkers, NY, decides to take a wife and employs a matchmaker, Mrs. Dolly Levi. Dolly subsequently becomes involved with two of Vandergelder's clerks, several lovely ladies, and the head waiter at an expensive restaurant, where this swift farce runs headlong into hilarious complications. After everyone gets straightened out romantically, Vandergelder finds himself affianced to the astute Dolly Levi herself.
Performances will be held on February 14, 15, 21, and 22 at 7 pm and February 16 at 3 pm at the Community Arts Center. All tickets are $20 and will be available for purchase at bigdealproductions.org starting on Friday, January 10.
