The Arts Center of Cannon County presents Hello Dolly: This 1964 Tony Award-winner for Best Musical is based on Thornton Wilder's 1955 play "The Matchmaker" and is the basis for the 1969 film.
Dolly, the famed New York City matchmaker, receives her toughest challenge yet when rich grump Horace seeks a suitable wife. She successfully matches many others in the city, including Horace's niece and two clerks, but everything seems to go wrong when it comes to matching Horace. Dolly finally realizes that maybe she'd like to marry Horace herself, but only if her late husband will send her a sign - and if Horace himself will have her.
