Well it's been about a week since Fiddler On The Roof closed, and I miss it very much. I enjoyed all 37 performances, and learned more in the process than I have in any other production. Performing such iconic numbers on-stage with such wonderfully gracious and talented people made memories I will never forget, and [...]
The second to last day of our Fiddler on the Roof run was a Friday. That evening, 30 minutes before the performance, cast and crew gathered in the green room.

The first and nearly last image of our show is that of the people of Anatevka joined together in a circle—first in celebration of “tradition,” and later in a heartfelt, communal [...]
Every morning I wake up and remind myself how lucky I am to have this incredible opportunity as one of four musical theatre apprentices at Barrington this summer.
