twilio dial numbers in sequence

I'd like to have a user make a series of calls in sequence (not simultaneously). The preferred interaction would be: 

<say>Connecting now. Press # to continue to the next call</say>
[dials a number]
[gathers # keypress and dials next number]
...
<say>Thanks</say>

Is this possible? Or do I need to use the dial action parameter to call the user back with the next call when they hangup?

Twilio evangelist here.

You should be able to use the hangupOnStar attribute to accomplish this:

<Response>
    <Say>Connecting now. Press star to continue to the next call</Say>
    <Dial hangupOnStar="true">+15555555555</Dial>
    <Dial hangupOnStar="true">+15555556666</Dial>
    <Dial hangupOnStar="true">+15555557777</Dial>
    <Say>Thanks</Say>
</Response>

This attribute lets the calling party disconnect from the called party by pressing the * key. When that happens Twilio will move to and execute the next TwiML verb.

Hope that helps.
