This product is so well known Musical throughout the world for its strong impact on family values and political values with much similarity in today's world. Continuing TRADITION IN FAMILY LIFE is noticed and felt in this emotional roller coaster of emotions.

The conflicts and lifestyles of FIDDLER on the ROOF will make you firmly planted in your seat to watch how the Father of the family centers around " TEVYE a father of five daughters in a poor Jewish community to provide the best he can. PLAYED BY JEREMY RAFIN - Is brilliant in this character. TEVYE'S teachings of TRADITION VALUES is his goal! One of the classic songs he belts out on stage with such feelings is " If I Were a Rich Man ".

His wife GOLDE, played by ALAINA MILLS, a truly one of New England's talented actresses and most favorite and loved how she transformed her characters you truly believed in! I felt her pain, her joy, her anger! BRAVA!!!

Then one of my beloved and fantastic character actresses KATHY St GEORGE as YENTE, brings this part to life. She has a variety of challenges she plays to make you believe whatever the character is! KUDOS KATHY!
