C., NOVEMBER 20, 1974 NUMBER 3 Fiddler On The Roof Brought To Life Thursday Night \ Tzeitel, Tevye’s oldest daughter (played by Hughes) watches intently as Motel, the tailor (Jim Barnhill) demonstrates his new sewing machine. Fyedka (Tom Jones) offers to lend a book to Chava (Kathi Skillen), Tevye’s third daughter. The Curtain Rises On Musical Brevard, N. C. - You don’t have to be Jewish to enjoy FIDDLER ON THE ROOF. The story is set in the little Russian village Anatevka, but it could be anywhere—anywhere that people face hard times with humor and humanity. This is the warm and touching story of Tevye, the dairyman, his wife, Golde, and their five exasperating daughters. Although Tevye’s precariously balanced world often threatens to come down around his ears, he manages to keep his wry sense of humor about himself, his family, and his God. John Chapman of the New York Daily News described FIDDLER ON THE ROOF as “One of the great works of the American musical theatre. It is darling, touching, beautiful, warm, funny, and inspiring. It is a work of art.. Howard Taubman of The New York Times characterized Fiddler as “filled with sughter and tenderness. It catches the essence of a moment ''' history with sentiment and radiance ... An exceptional accomplishment.” A large cast of Brevard College students and faculty will bring this remarkable musical to life on November 21, 22, and 23 in the Dunham Auditorium. Heading the cast in the roles of Tevye and Golde are Preston Woodruff, Brevard College professor, and Laura Funk, sophomore music major.
