LHS Musical - Fiddler on the Roof
The tradition of great musicals continues at Lovejoy High School with this year's family-friendly performance of
Fiddler on the Roof. The show will be presented January 19 - 21, 2017 at 7 pm. Tickets go on sale starting TOMORROW!
Set in the small Russian town of Anatevka in 1905, Fiddler on the Roof tells a story of faith, family, and tradition. Tevye (played by senior Trace Glorioso) tries to preserve his family's traditions in a changing world. He is forced to choose between maintaining his Jewish culture and the happiness of his three eldest daughters Tzeitel (sophomore Adelyn Maruca), Hodel (senior Zoe Kahana), and Chava (junior Renae Haas). From laughter-inducing lines to memorable music, Fiddler on the Roof is a show for everyone featuring characters that audiences will fall in love with, such as Tevye's endearingly feisty wife, Golde (senior Rachel Bradley) the local matchmaker, Yente (senior Abby Yaeger), the village butcher Lazar Wolfe (junior Vinny Horlock), and the poor lovestruck tailor Motel (junior Ryan Hyde).
The show offers iconic and beloved songs such as "Matchmaker, Matchmaker," "Tradition," and "Sunrise, Sunset," making it a perfect mix of audience-pleasing humor and heart.
Fiddler on the Roof
is a heartfelt, moving musical that you and your loved ones will enjoy, so journey down to the Lovejoy High School Auditorium.
