Broadway is gearing up for a new sensation with "Hello, I'm Dolly," a musical journey through the life of Dolly Parton. The iconic singer-songwriter is crafting fresh tunes alongside her classic hits, collaborating with Maria S. 

Schlatte on the narrative. Anticipated for 2026, the production promises a blend of laughter, tears, and applause, capturing the essence of a "Grand Ol' Opera." 

Parton's storied career, from her debut album in 1967 to her legendary status today, serves as the inspiration for this Broadway spectacle. With numerous accolades, including 52 Grammy nominations and 11 wins, Parton's musical legacy is vast, offering a treasure trove of chart-toppers like "9 to 5" and "Jolene." While this marks Parton's Broadway debut, her music has previously graced the stage in productions like "9 to 5" and holiday specials.

 "Hello, I'm Dolly" joins the ranks of musician biopics on Broadway, following in the footsteps of icons like Neil Diamond and Carole King. Produced by Parton, Adam Speers, and Danny Nozell, this musical promises to captivate audiences with the timeless charm of Dolly Parton's extraordinary life and music.
