Barbra Streisand stars as Mrs. Dolly Levi, whose matchmaking skills come in handy when she sets her eye on the curmudgeonly Horace Vandergelder.

The winner of three Academy Awards, Hello, Dolly! enjoyed newfound popularity as a favorite of Pixar robot Wall-E as well as a Broadway revival and national tour.

In Colorado, Hello, Dolly! will play at several theaters including Regal Denver Pavilions 15, AMC Southlands 16, Regal River Point 14, Tinseltown Colorado Springs, Cinemark Carefree Circle, Regal Interquest Stadium 14, Bel Mar 16 and more.
