*THE MUSICAL THEATER PROJECT AND CHAGRIN ARTS PRESENT “BEHIND THE MUSICAL:
HELLO, DOLLY!” AT*

*CHAGRIN FALLS HIGH SCHOOL PERFORMING ARTS CENTER*



The Musical Theater Project presents “Behind the Musical: Hello, Dolly!,” a
co-production with Chagrin Arts, this Sunday, April 26, at 3pm at Chagrin
Falls High School Performing Arts Center.



The popular “Behind the Musical” series was created by TMTP to explore the
history of a beloved musical’s trials and tribulations on the road to
success.  These multi-media concerts include archival footage,
first-account interviews and live performances of all the beloved songs
from the source material.  Previous musicals featured in this series
include “Fiddler on the Roof,” “Carousel,” “The Music Man” and “My Fair
Lady.”



“Behind the Musical: Hello, Dolly!” is co-hosted by TMTP’s artistic
director Bill Rudman and music director Nancy Maier and features Ann
Gilbert, Jared Leal, Jessica Cope Miller and Shane Patrick O’Neill.  Taking
on the songs of the iconic Dolly Levi is local favorite Sheri Gross,
director of the performing arts camp and youth theater at Mandel Jewish
Community Center.



Says Rudman: “We’ll be telling a darn good story.  In 1964 Dolly almost
said goodbye instead of hello.  Composer-lyricist Jerry Herman says that
‘doing that musical was the most difficult time in my career.’”  The show
remains a universal success over 50 years later.  Audiences can expect to
hear all the songs from the score including “Before the Parade Passes By,”
“It Only Takes A Moment,” and of course the title song.



Chagrin Falls High School Performing Arts Center is located at 400 East
Washington Street in Chagrin Falls.  General tickets are priced at $26/$20
and TMTP Member tickets are $21/$15.  Tickets at the door are priced at
$30/$25.  Seating is general admission within section and available on a

“Behind the Musical: Hello, Dolly!” is presented as part of “The Song Is
You!” concert and cabaret season produced each year by The Musical Theater
Project at a variety of locations.
