Easy Street Productions is presenting "Hello, Dolly" the next two weekends. We're looking forward to seeing Maureen Collins in the role of Dolly Levi.
To prepare the babes for this theatre experience, we watched the movie a month or so ago. I also have the video from when their daddy musical-directed the production at the Youngstown Playhouse back in 1996 or 1997 and they have watched and giggled at that.
Boston absolutely loves all the tunes from this show and now can sing all the tunes on demand. At breakfast Sunday morning, Tyler would call out "Before the Parade", "It Takes A Woman", "Hello, Dolly", and Boston would start into each song on cue, perfect lyrics, tune and rhythm. What a kick.
His sister, on the other hand, has followed my lead and taken to "Pick-A-Little, Talk-A-Little" from "The Music Man."
How fun that these babes have inherited both our love of and ear for music and our love of musical theatre.
