Last night DR Jed and I saw a community production of Fiddler. Let's just say it was better than we had expected.
That it was... however, having seen a few productions from this company in the past, the bar had been set disturbingly low...
Musically the show was quite strong
Very much so, yes... sadly, that's only half of a show...
and their Tevye was solid
For the most part, yes. If only he had a sense of comedic timing.
Due to the strength of the music (both vocal and orchestral), I think it was a decent community theatre production, but should have been quite a bit better. My kingdom for a director!!!
