Fiddler on the RoofMusic by: Jerry Bock
Lyrics by: Sheldon Harnick Book by: Joseph Stein January 25th, 7:00 pm January 26th, 7:00 pm January 27th, 2:00 pm and 7:00 pm Winner of nine Tony Awards when it debuted in 1964, Fiddler on the Roof is the brainchild of Broadway legends, Jerome Robbins and Harold Prince; songwriters, Jerry Bock and Sheldon Harnick; and bookwriter, Joseph Stein. Touching audiences worldwide with its humor, warmth and honesty, this universal show is a staple of the musical theatre canon. Set in the little village of Anatevka, the story centers on Tevye, a poor milkman, and his five daughters. With the help of a colorful and tight-knit Jewish community, Tevye tries to protect his daughters and instill them with traditional values in the face of changing social mores and the growing anti-Semitism of Czarist Russia. Rich in historical and ethnic detail, Fiddler on the Roof's universal theme of tradition cuts across barriers of race, class, nationality and religion, leaving audiences crying tears of laughter, joy and sadness. 24 Hour Play Project The 24 Hour Play Project is a student driven project that takes place over the course of 24 Hours! From 6:00 pm February 23rd to 6:00 pm February 24th students will have the task of directing, rehearsing, designing, and performing a show! Greatness will ensue, fun will be had, and theatre magic will happen!
The final performance will be Saturday, February 24th at 6:00 pm! |
