A not-so-funny thing happened on the way to “Dolly” greatness…

Got a quick note from Pelham assistant director Tom Beck. They’re doing “Hello, Dolly!” this weekend:“Last night was our best sold night for HELLO DOLLY! The show was great and the kids were feeding off the energy from the wonderful audience. They APPLAUDED the “Sunday Clothes” costume change!!! Anyway, Pelham Police forced us to stop the show and evacuate the school due to a 4-alarm chemical fire in nearby Mount Vernon.“The kids were crestfallen. They were so upset because they knew they wereon their way to the best show ever. “So … now we only have tonight and tomorrow at 3 pm to try to re-seat the sold-out crowd into the remaining seats!”Sounds like a tall order, but if anyone can figure it out, it’s director John Orefice and his able assistants, Beck and Neil Schleifer.
