Agree.

Hello, Dolly

They really messed that up. It should say GAVIN CREEL in HELLO, DOLLY! That's why I'm excited about this production.

#805

Hello, Dolly

Geez Louise! The article clearly clarifies the sign was still in the process of being put up when photo was taken. You can even see the ladder and the installer to the left of the atrium. laugh

#806

Hello, Dolly

The marquee looks great. One question: is the critic quotes from the reviews of the original Broadway production from 1964 or from productions over the years? Other than that, I'm very excited to see the rehearsal footage that'll come soon.

The quotes are all from the original, glorious, production.

Hello, Dolly

"The article clearly clarifies the sign was still in the process of being put up when photo was taken."

So they posted "Bett" and then went down a line and posted "Midler" and then went down a line and posted "Hello," and then went down a line and posted "Dolly!" and then went back up four lines to post the final "e" on Bette's name? Maybe, if someone caught the error while they were still working. Someone still had to have screwed up at some point unless the picture is shopped.

Hello, Dolly

Can we talk about real issues with the marquee, such as that the "o" in "Hello" is clearly a zero? 0 ≠ O.

Otherwise, loving it and really, really can't wait for this!!!

#811

Hello, Dolly

I heard an elderly man screaming at someone in the shower at the YMCA that the production had already taken in 25 million in advance sales. Of course he said she was starring in Gypsy so he may have been confused all together.

If they had forgotten the explanation point, this board would have--literally--exploded!

Hello, Dolly

#815

Hello, Dolly

Glad they finally corrected it, but geez it still was a horrible mistake.

You keep saying this without reading any of the responses above. The "incorrect spelling" was on a picture taken while the sign was still in the process of being put up. It was never a mistake, horrible or otherwise.

I'd guess on January 14, 2018, which is her last confirmed show. She could extend, of course.

#818

Hello, Dolly

I posted earlier that installing the letters, it would be odd to go down then go back up to install the final letter. But on second thought, maybe the letters were put up from the bottom to the top. The "e" would have been the last letter placed and the photo could have been taken immediately before.

I feel silly even taking the trouble to post this.
#819

Hello, Dolly

As for the "sign error", they just didn't finish it yet. Now it is. smiley

They've already approached Loretta Swit about replacing her sooner

Hello, Dolly

The canopy above the box office door really bothers me. I don't like how off-center the red 'logo square' is on the side of it.

I also totally agree with the poster who said the red and white should be reversed on all of the huge signs. Would have been 10000x more eye-catching.

#822

Hello, Dolly

I think the awning looks so cheap! Did they spend like 5 cents on it. The awning should play off of the Harmonia Gardens! Red velvet! Whisk us into the world. And this is a legend playing Dolly should feel more important.

Hope they put some money into the sets!...this is totally dollar store in my opinion...

#823

Hello, Dolly

Does anyone know what the rush policy is going to be? Will there be a lottery?

Well, Santo Loquasto is the set and costume designer of this revival, he might come up with some great stuff. You never know.

Hello, Dolly

I've heard Mr. Rudin may not allow merchandise to be sold at the shows. We'll see... all kinds of rumors out there.
