I saw this in Connecticut a few months ago. Tricia Paoluccio was wonderful with Gabriel Barre directing. Also, it was funded with a government arts grant during Covid-19.

What's The Courtyard theatre like? Rectangular and on three levels. Mostly raked seating, with single rows around the sides. Depending on what rows are sold, the first row, or two, are often below stage level, and have a price to match. Picture credit: Ian Grundy

Coming to The Lowry from Tue 29 Oct - Sat 2 Nov 2024. On sale to members now, general sale tomorrow at 10am. It's in the Lyric Theatre at The Lowry which is a bit of a surprise, considering it's in the Courtyard at Leeds Playhouse.

Yeah..I've got my Lowry 2 for 1 tickets but was surprised it was not in the Quays thatre. Seemed a good fit. A two hander in the Lyric...might struggle unless some patrons will think it is a full blown Dolly musical

Surprised that the board is so quiet about this one. Anybody there for the first performance on Saturday?

This is the Leeds Jury reporting…
Saw this tonight. If you like Dolly and all of her hits you will love this. An astonishingly good Dolly performance from Tricia Paoluccio who sings brilliantly. Set during 2020 and the pandemic, Dolly is a guardian angel for the vulnerable Kevin (Stevie Webb), acting as a friend, life coach and general all round inspiration. It has some touching moments and is quite funny (although having seen Jonathan Harvey’s A Thong for Europe in Liverpool last year it is neither as funny nor rude as that. I am still blushing now.) Obviously the songs are great and it is a cheerful and positive night out. As with In Dreams last year in Leeds, the performances are better than the material.
