Heavier Than Air Family Theatre Company is serving up the quintessential Broadway musical, “Fiddler on the Roof”, this holiday season.<\/p>\n
The musical premieres at 7 p.m. Friday, Dec. 9 on the main campus of Green River College, 12401 SE 320th St., Auburn, and runs Fridays, Saturdays and Sunday through Dec. 17.<\/p>\n
Local musician Amanda Baskin is the Fiddler whose sounds match the mood of a colorful community in a far off land. With a brilliant mix of laughter, warmth and inspiration, a poignant story is told through song.<\/p>\n
Set in the tiny village of Anatevka on the eve of Russian revolution, Heavier Than Air’s sizable cast captures the hopes, dreams and struggles of a people clinging to traditional values in the face of a changing world. The Tony Award-winning show is rich in historical detail and has danced its way into the hearts of audiences for over 50 years.<\/p>\n
With fathers and daughters, husbands and wives all crooning beloved songs like “Sunrise, Sunset”, “Matchmaker”, “If I Were a Rich Man”, and, of course, the iconic “Tradition”, Fiddler on the Roof is a tale of tradition that has become a tradition itself.<\/p>\n
Tickets are $10, $12 at the door.<\/p>\n
