TENTATIVE REHEARSAL SCHEDULE
At this point we are planning rehearsals Sunday, Tuesday, and Wednesday evenings starting soon after Auditions - In January current plans are to work on music mostly with individuals and small groups based upon availability. Though we may try and squeeze in one or two Ensemble music rehearsals as well. February will begin the regular rehearsal schedule. This is current planning but may shift a bit depending upon conflicts. Of course as we get close to show time things will be more intense as we run the show.
PRODUCTION SCHEDULE
Performances April 7-8, 14-15, and 21-22 at 8 pm, and April 23 at 2 pm
CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS
Please review the character descriptions for details and requirements for each character. Please note that in addition to the youngest sisters we will be casting 4-6 children age 9-12.

INFORMATION FOR SINGING AUDITIONS
The following is a list of songs from Fiddler from which we would like you to prepare excerpts, depending on which role(s) you will be auditioning for. Please click to download the sheet music, on which the measures to be prepared are marked. Although we would prefer you sing directly for the character you are auditioning, you may bring 16-32 bars of a similar era musical theater piece if that is more comfortable for you. Shows written after 1980 will not show us as much as shows written at or before the period of Fiddler.
