But Dolly Gallagher Levi is no ordinary matchmaker. Shes a force of nature, with a plan of her own. Levi soon becomes involved in the affairs of the hearts of all those around her-including Vandergelders niece, his store clerks, assorted young and lovely ladies, and the headwaiter at an expensive restaurant, where this swift farce inevitably runs headlong into hilarious complications. Indeed, after a series of slapstick situations involving mistaken identities, a secret rendezvous behind carefully placed screens, separated lovers, and a trip to night court-everyone involved eventually finds themselves paired with a perfect match.A delightful, deliciously funny classic by Thornton Wilder, The Matchmaker is astonishingly modern and is sure to resonate with audiences and readers today.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51527369097504,"sku":"NEW0062693492","price":17.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61kMVoBgYrL.jpg?v=1777231872","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/matchmaker-0062693492","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
