Victor Garber on his return to Broadway in ‘Hello, Dolly!’ “Suddenly this came up out of the blue”
On Sunday, Victor Garber returned to Broadway alongside Bernadette Peters in the Tony-winning revival of Hello, Dolly! “I am finding a great joy in singing again and I’ve missed it,” the 68-year-old Canadian actor tells Entertainment Tonight. “The problem is I haven’t kept it up, but I am getting back in shape and I’m feeling really good at it.” Peters has taken over for Bette Midler and Garber for David Hyde Pierce. “Once I knew Bernadette was involved, I jumped at it and said, ‘Of course I want to do it.’ Then I went to see the show after I said yes. It’s what you call a no-brainer.” “It’s so well-written this musical — it’s all there,” Garber says of composer Jerry Herman’s music and the lyrics and book by Michael Stewart. “All you have to do is surrender to what it is and it just takes over.”
