LCHS presents Fiddler on the Roof May 9th through 12th

 

[May 01, 2019]    On May 9th-12th, Lincoln Community High School will be performing Fiddler on the Roof.

The production takes viewers back to the early 1900s to tell the story of Tevye, Golde, and their five daughters. It tells the story of Tevye’s universal struggle between tradition and a changing world, along with early Jewish persecution in the Western Russian Empire.

Tevye and his family, along with the colorful characters of their home village Anatevka, have traditions for everything. But when Tevye’s daughters begin to approach the idea of marriage, they begin to question these old ways of life.

This icon of classic Broadway is full of laughs, tears, and beautiful music. From the joyous anthem of To Life to the heart wrenching tones of the finale Anatevka, this show is full of moments that anyone could relate to.

The show’s lead role, Tevye, is portrayed by Jack Graue. His wife Golde is portrayed by Makenna Frank, supported by a talented ensemble. Headed by Ms. Kim Peterson-Quinn, Mr. Tim Searby, Ms. Cari Wilmert, Mr. Nigel Range and Mr. Anthony Brummet, the show is a must-see for all.

Performances are scheduled for Thursday, May 9th; Friday. May 10 and Saturday, May 11th at 7 p.m.  There will also be a Sunday matinee on May 12th at 2 p.m.
