“Hello, Dolly” takes stage at Marian Central as this year’s spring musical. “It’s so nice to have you back where you belong.”

Welcome to 1890s Younkers, N.Y., where Horace Vandergelder — the well-known half-a-millionaire — is about to have his life changed by Dolly Gallagher-Levi. Dolly is the classic matchmaker who has a positive effect on everyone she meets, including Vandergelder’s Hay & Feed clerks Cornelius and Barnaby, as well as Irene and Minnie of Miss Malloy’s Hat Shop.

Join in for a heart-warming, funny show that includes such wonderful songs as “Put on Your Sunday Clothes,” “Elegance,” “It Only Takes a Moment,” and of course the title song, “Hello, Dolly.”

Performances are at 7 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays Feb. 24, 25, March 2 and 3. Back by popular demand is the matinee at 2 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 26.

Reserved tickets for the show are $10 and $5 for students and senior citizens. Tickets will go on sale at 9 a.m. Monday, Feb. 13. To reserve seats, call Marian’s school office at (815) 338-4220, ext. 100.
