First of all it is Hello, Dolly, not Hey Dolly! Hello Dolly was probably the most widely advertised broadway show ( various cast members) of all time and was all over the billboard scene in the mid to late sixties. Best known Dolly actress was Carol Channing, though there were many. The movie version starred Barbara Streisand. The story is essentially a Jewish one, as it was adapted from the Thornton Wilder play- The matchmaker. In theme the title character is being revved-up by the singers and band as some sort of heroine or feature star. ( a somewhat similar SONG- I don not know about the play content- never having seen it- is Mame! Why not a variation by the IKGB choral society- with the following lines- Who makes the Grey Stuff ( Platinum) easy to pick- STACY1 who gives White Russian Vodka it"s Kick- Stacy! there"s an idea.
