Saw this - damn near cried my eyes out - and had a flashback to the Shubert Theater of how incredible and joyous the show was, and how this looked exactly like it. I’ll take the little differences you mentioned that are in the new tour, and will be absolutely thrilled to see this next Friday. THANK YOU for the review, and I’m looking forward to others today as more people come back to the forum with their thoughts.

Just noticed in that video they have "christmas" lights instead of lamps above the hudson river valley scene!

That curtain call video made me really happy! Thanks, n2nbaby!
I hope to catch the production in Tempe, but I am not sure yet. I'll be doing everything in my power to get there! I love "Hello, Dolly!" so much and have been so sad since it closed so just knowing that this production is playing somewhere brings me so much joy.

The curtain call video didn't give the warm fuzzys the New York one's do. Especially when Betty comes out. But it is only cell phone video. I guess no shaking of hands or any of that due to the fake passarelle?

I agree with you. Now the "Dolly Glow" is spreading across the country!

I don't know. Betty looks kind of frumpy and uncomfortable in that curtain call. Looking forward to this. Dolly is such a great show,

I noticed in those bows that they cut two women and two men from the non-dancing ensemble.

I wouldn't say frumpy and uncomfortable since her smile is beaming but a very mannered curtain call-bows.

Well you are right. Upon second viewing I could tell that at the very end she was smiling and beaming. And perhaps frumpy is not the word I should have used. But she still looked uncomfortable. And of course I am just talking about that little clip of the bows. My judgement might also affected by that woohooing from whomever that was by whoever recorded. If you watch the endless videos of the Broadway curtain calls with all three different Dolly's; the joy comes thru. Again.. I am only commenting on this short little video clip which really tells me nothing..

Wow, what a great clip. Thanks for sharing. Really looking forward to seeing it!

That was me that recorded it and I was woohooing due to the fact I couldn’t clap due to me filming the curtain call and wanted to express my love for the case. I filmed the curtain call because I know this board had a lot of Dolly fans who won’t be able to see the tour and was lucky enough to be the first stop on the road.
Next time i me I suppose I just won’t.

Oh I did not mean to insult you. Thank you so much for posting the video. The woohooing is loud and a pet peeve. Just call me old and cranky. But I am very grateful you posted the video and I am so happy you had a great time. I love Betty and I can't wait to see her in this.

to be exact, there's three fewer ensemble members on the tour then in the Broadway production. Broadway had 24 members in the ensemble while the tour has just 21.

Do you think the orchestra is reduced a little as well? Kind of bummed about the fake passarele. I thought the bows on broadway became iconic with this production. It was such a moment and somewhat to do to with it.

Second and final Preview Show now well underway, sitting here patiently waiting for more reports that’ll come later tonight after those in attendance have had their Dolly Glow recharged. :)

It was only the first night...the joy will happen for Betty during the curtain call. She'll be at ease I bet and cherish the curtain calls soon enough!
