Kimmel Center Cultural Campus

Dear friends,

Welcome to the Academy of Music on the Kimmel Center Cultural Campus, the two-week home of this stunning revival of Hello, Dolly!. Part of our 2019-20 season, boasting 44 Tony Awards®, this re-staged classic dazzles with elaborate costuming, comedic mastery, and a leading lady named “Dolly Levi” who, over the years, has been portrayed by Broadway’s biggest names, from Carol Channing to Barbra Streisand.

At the center of Hello! Dolly are three love stories, spanning age and socio-economic status. Across our Cultural Campus, we specialize in helping couples’ love stories spring to life with surprise proposals, rehearsal dinners, wedding ceremonies, and rockin’ receptions. Did you know, with our partners at Garces Events, we were selected as a winner of the 2019 and 2020 “Best of Weddings” award from The Knot? It’s a thrill to know that couples who come to our home to celebrate their love story receive an experience worthy of a standing ovation!

As Philadelphia’s home for brand new jazz, family-friendly programming, comedy legends, and eight esteemed Resident Companies, this spring we showcase renowned (and strong “Dolly Levi-type”) women who inspire us with their passion for the arts, including: former Kimmel Center Theater Residents M’Balia Singley and Deb Margolin, with their respective original works, Turn (February 26 – 29) and TWO BLUES: Two Plays (April 2 – 5); Egyptologist Kara Cooney with National Geographic Live’s When Women Ruled the World (March 18); and Broadway stars Kristin Chenoweth (March 13) and Audra McDonald (April 11). PLUS, experience Vision 2020’s “Seat at the Table” in our Plaza (March – September), celebrating the 100th anniversary of women’s right to vote.

As a non-profit, we are thankful to generous supporters for the chance to transform lives daily through the arts. We continue our Education Strategic Plan for Growth – with a goal to expand 10-fold, educating, engaging, and inspiring 100,000 students per year by the fifth year of the plan. This program focuses on jazz, musical theater, and technology, providing a wide range of hands-on, in-depth experiences.

MICHAEL STEWART (Book) was still relatively early in his theatrical career when he had his first smash hit in 1960 with Bye Bye Birdie, for which he won the Tony Award for Best Book. His subsequent Broadway shows include Carnival! (Drama Critics Circle Award); Hello, Dolly! (Tony Award, Drama Critics Circle Award); George M! (with Francine and John Pascal); Mack & Mabel (Tony nomination); The Grand Tour; 42nd Street (with Mark Bramble; Tony Award); and Harrigan and Hart (Tony nomination). He is also the lyricist of Barnum (music by Cy Coleman, Tony nomination) and I Love My Wife (Tony nomination). Mr. Stewart died in 1987.

JERRY HERMAN (Music & Lyrics) remains one of the most iconic and beloved composers in the American theater. His legendary scores have spawned such standards as “I Am What I Am,” “The Best of Times,” “Mame,” “If He Walked into My Life,” “We Need a Little Christmas” and “Hello, Dolly!” His first Broadway musical, Milk and Honey (1961), ran for 543 performances. He made history in 1964 with Hello, Dolly! (10 Tony Awards, including Best Musical, a Broadway record held for 37 years), which was followed by yet another smash, Mame, in 1966. With Dolly! and Mame still running, Herman had the rare distinction of having three Broadway shows playing simultaneously when Dear World opened in 1969. In 1974, Mack & Mabel opened (and remains one of his best-loved scores) and was followed by 1979’s The Grand Tour. Herman’s most recent Broadway show, La Cage aux Folles, became another phenomenon, winning the Tony Award in 1984 for Best Musical. It was successfully revived in 2004 and 2010, winning the Tony for Best Revival each time. Two of Herman’s most cherished songs from Hello, Dolly! are the emotional highlights of the Disney-Pixar classic Wall-E, cementing Herman’s place in American popular culture. His countless awards and honors include multiple Tony Awards, Grammy Awards, Olivier Awards, Drama Desk Awards, the Johnny Mercer Award, the Richard Rodgers Award, the Oscar Hammerstein Award, the Frederick Loewe Award, membership in the Songwriters Hall of Fame, the Theater Hall of Fame and most recently, The Kennedy Center Honor.

WHO’S WHO IN THE CAST

GOWER CHAMPION (Original Director and Choreographer) is a name synonymous with some of the greatest musicals in Broadway history. In addition to Hello, Dolly!, which cemented his reputation as a legendary theater artist and garnered him Tony Awards for both Direction and Choreography, he directed and choreographed Bye Bye Birdie (Tony Awards for Direction and Choreography), Carnival! (Tony nomination for Direction), I Do! I Do! (Tony nomination for Direction), The Happy Time (Tony for both Direction and Choreography), Sugar (Tony nominations for Direction and Choreography), Mack & Mabel (Tony nominations for Direction and Choreography), and 42nd Street (Tony for Choreography, Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Choreography, Tony nomination for Direction). His first Broadway credit as choreographer, Lend an Ear, won him his first Tony Award for Choreography in 1949. He studied dance from an early age and, at the age of 15, toured nightclubs with his friend Jeanne Tyler and later with Marge Belcher, who eventually became his wife. During the late 1930s and early 1940s, Champion worked on Broadway as a solo dancer and choreographer. After serving in the U.S. Coast Guard during World War II, the team of Gower and Marge Champion became one of the most popular attractions on television variety shows, appearing on “Jack Benny,” “Garry Moore,” “Dinah Shore,” “The Ed Sullivan Show,” and in their own series, “The Marge and Gower Champion Show,” in 1957. The pair also appeared in several film musicals with Bing Crosby (Mr. Music, 1950), Kathryn Grayson and Howard Keel (Show Boat, 1951; Lovely to Look At, 1952), Debbie Reynolds (Give a Girl a Break, 1953), Betty Grable (Three for the Show, 1955), Esther Williams (Jupiter’s Darling, 1955) and occasionally earned their own top billing (Everything I Have Is Yours, 1952). Gower Champion died in 1980 on the day that 42nd Street, his last great hit, opened on Broadway. He was awarded the last of his eight Tony Awards posthumously.

The following November, he opened three shows in a single week. At the height of his activity, he had eight productions running simultaneously on Broadway. His musicals included Jamaica with Lena Horne; Destry Rides Again with Andy Griffith and Dolores Gray; Gypsy with Ethel Merman; Take Me Along with Jackie Gleason; Irma La Douce; Do Re Mi with Phil Silvers and Nancy Walker; Carnival! with Anna Maria Alberghetti and Jerry Orbach; I Can Get It for You Wholesale with Elliott Gould and Barbra Streisand; Stop the World— I Want to Get Off and The Roar of the Greasepaint—The Smell of the Crowd with Anthony Newley; Oliver!; 110 in the Shade; I Do!
