As I wait in the wings as Tevye with my milkcan, I get to (improbably) travel to the Mississippi to hear Bill Supon's wonderful bass voice as he performs "Old Man River" from Showboat...
...and then to Missitucky for a lovely duet of "How Are Things in Glocca Morra?" from Finian's Rainbow sung by Ginger McClure and Bob Moulard.
Then I walk into a barnyard in Russia, a century or so ago, set down that heavy milkcan, wipe my sweaty forehead, and begin a little talk with God, reprising "If I Were a Rich Man" that I had the honor of performing on this stage in 2000 in a full production of the moving musical Fiddler on the Roof . What fun to perform this scene again -- especially with an excellent accompanying instrumental ensemble led by James Willis.
I hope you'll catch a performance if you are in town. This week and next:
