Staunton said: “I’m delighted that we are announcing our new production of Hello, Dolly!, which is a truly joyous show.
“Dolly Levi is one of the great characters in musical theatre, and I can’t wait to join the company in bringing our new production to the iconic London Palladium.”
Jerry Herman (La Cage aux Folles) and Michael Stewart (42nd Street)’s musical is based on Thornton Wilder’s The Matchmaker, and first debuted on Broadway over 50 years ago.
It follows the socialite Dolly Levi who tries to find love for herself and everyone she knows.
The show features numbers including “Put On Your Sunday Clothes”, “Ribbons Down My Back”, “Before the Parade Passes By”, “Elegance”, “It Only Takes a Moment” and the title track.
It’ll be directed by Dominic Cooke, who will reunite with Staunton following their production of Follies at the National Theatre in 2017.
The Academy Award-nominated actress recently completed filming her role as the Queen in The Crown, which will air its final season this November.
