lol

hahaha... "it's a PEARFEKT METCH!" How good IS this?

My daughter was the matchmaker in her high school play!

"Then again.. *is* your son so much to *look* at?"

John Shaw *tzar

abandoned it can be said both ways

Actually there is a blessing (a berakhah) to be recited upon seeing a king. I've seen in old prayerbooks printed in the former Russian Empire a prayer for the well being of the Czar, the Imperial Family, and the government. It would have been recited at times without irony or comedy. It is a hilarious line.

Pretty fly for a Rabi.

as the rabbi for our school production i got alot of laughs from that line!

But it's a tradition and because of our traditions everyone knows who they are and what God expects them to do

+Lauren Faerber funny how we follow "traditions" that we don't even know where they came from.

+soilofk You ruined the continuation.

Which production did you see? There have been many great ones over the years (and some I wouldn't see if you threatened me or paid me to sit through it). Most recently, there was a Yiddish-language production off-Broadway (with super-titles in English & Russian) but after many years in several different theaters it's closing by the end of 2022...

You saw --this-- on Broadway? I was always under the impression that Broadway was top tier.

I saw the performance in the video above. It was amazing to me how they transformed a stage into the village of Anatevka.

That's because it was written last with the help of a new creative! The show was not working with audiences at all and the new person said "What's the show about?! Tell the audience! Right at the start!"

Ummmm, look again.🤔

Your avatar shows you wear glasses. May I suggest getting a new pair?

What are you talking about

I watched the movie long way before I discovered it was a Broadway-based play and obviously I agree with you. Nevertheless a couple weeks ago I got into a flea market and I found "Fiddler on the Roof: The Original Broadway Cast Recording". In the beginning, I was skeptical about its quality and I admit that I bought it only cause its price (a bargain) and the fact that it was a vinyl record but I was surprised to notice that the play's version is really good. Now I prefer almost every song over its simile from the movie except the fiddle solo at the end of the prologue/tradition theme and of course, the great Chaim Topol's version of "If I a were a rich man". In this video, you can notice something really great that was changed in the film 3:33. In the record, sounds one thousand times better; John Williams made a great job I know, but it wasn't as good as the original.

"TEVYE KNOWS IT WAS TWELVE!!! "

Lauren Faerber right? Of course right!

Gino Barahona yes that part where the different parts mix is so good! I remember when I was working on a production of this play a couple years ago as a musician in the orchestra that that part was so difficult to play!

The six / twelve argument was a change for the film. The original broadway text was Horse / Mule

Topol was better.... He toured Australia in the 2006/7 professional production.

SN - Old channel la de Beba es mejor

A masterpiece I agree

I watched years 15 or more, it was Malina, if I am not mistaken! It was stunning, more like Topol. Anyway this show is a beautiful! ❤️❤️❤️

Congrats!!!!

Nah, I'd worry about Fruma Sarah if I were Tzeitel.

I was the only Jew in my school and I didn’t get casted, it led to butchered pronunciation, I hope our school got them right

Gwen N. FRUMA SARAH IS COMING

same, but im mendel

thats because timing is hard for children

Demon Hyperion :( mine does too. Not cool! They’re so good.

Im not a fan of musicals, but i happened across some clips of this one and im definitely buying the dvd if avilable. Also, cats owns.

Pity. The non-diegetic singing and dancing used to bother me about musicals, so I didn't like watching them, but Fiddler On The Roof got my brain re-wired somehow.

Dang.

Tell him he's got to like it it's tradition

***** that makes sense

Andrew Grell that's not a rock show. you should keep silence while singing

Andrew Grell i agree completely. Fiddler is meant to be funny at times. Like the scene between yente and the father.

Most probably they zoned out the audience reactions

It's a press performance, everyone there would be filming also

Chaim Topol toured in the previous major Australian tour.... Warlow doesn't even come close....

Man that sucks

Thadyn Du Pont I also saw it last September on Broadway and we we're late. We came in after Tradition.

Tylerrose Williamson girl, that’s what I’m doing this year! If you have any advice, I’m open to hearing it lol.

That's what I'm doing this year!!!

@@kp4692 have fun! It was truly a magical show to be apart of

@@tylerrosewilliamson7609 it seems like it already!!! We just started rehearsals and I already feel amazing!!!

@@tylerrosewilliamson7609 and thank you!!!

Was it fun? I know it was work but I always like to think that it would be as fun as it was hard

Sammy Pachos​ Yes it's fun! One more weekend! :)

I'm in Fiddler on the roof this semester and I am play Mendel and Sasha

mabxel Proud of you!

Gio Vidrio thank you!! I'm super excited! This is the first time I'm performing in a musical

Pink Cowl, lol

I want to know how this went

To be fair, the historical state of the imperial army in the late empire was not terribly far off. By 1914 they didn’t have shoes or bullets for soldiers. No wonder they lost the civil war!

I saw him recreate his own 1990 portrayal of the Title role in Australia's original production of Phantom Of The Opera during its last major tour of Australia in like 2007/8. He was amazing as The Phantom!!!

Minkio Nano how’d it go??

how’d it go

Being in pit is hard to play out because we're under the stage and in my school they don't have mic's down their but maybe in this musical they do. But I think that depends on the people playing stings to play out more
