Staples Players Get Ready for ‘Fiddler on the Roof’

The Staples Players are getting ready for their production for the first time in 20 years of “Fiddler on the Roof.” The Tony Award-winning musical, which recently celebrated the 50th anniversary of its Broadway premier, is director David Roth’s 50th Players production. “[Associate Director] Kerry Long and I have thought about bringing Fiddler to the Staples stage for years,” said Roth.  “This year, given the striking parallels between current social issues and those explored in the show, the time felt right.” Evening performances are on Friday and Saturday, Nov. 13, 14, 20, and 21 at 7:30 p.m. Matinee performances are on Sunday, Nov. 15 and Saturday, Nov. 21 at 3 p.m. Tickets may be purchased online with a credit card at http://www.StaplesPlayers.com/Tickets, or in the Staples High School lobby, Thursday and Friday, Nov. 5 and 6, 12:30 to 2 p.m. by check/cash only. Tickets will also be sold at the door 30 minutes prior to each performance, subject to availability. Tickets are $15 for adults and $10 for students. Discounted tickets for seniors at $10 are available for the matinees only. (CLICK TO ENLARGE) Photo by Kerry Long
