12:30 PM – JCC-U Lunch and Learn: Join us for a lunch and learn with our drama teacher and actor in residence – John Dalton who will be presenting a class about the production of Fiddler on the Roof at the Carnival Studio Theater of the Adrienne Arsht Center.

Artistic director Stuart Meltzer has a history of presenting fresh, bold interpretations of classics of the musical theater canon, focusing on the intimacy of performance and storytelling. In that tradition, Zoetic Stage will present Fiddler on the Roof, the brainchild of Broadway legends Jerome Robbins and Harold Prince, songwriters Jerry Bock and Sheldon Harnick and book writer Joseph Stein.

Set in the village of Anatevka, the story centers on Tevye, a poor milkman, and his five daughters as he tries to protect them and instill them with traditional values in the face of changing social mores and the growing anti-Semitism of Czarist Russia. Fiddler on the Roof’s universal theme of tradition cuts across barriers of race, class, nationality and religion. With iconic and beloved songs such as “Sunrise, Sunset,” “If I Were a Rich Man” and “Matchmaker, Matchmaker,” Fiddler on the Roof is a story of humor, heart and honesty.

Then join John and a group from the MBJCC on Sunday, April 6 to see the play for a matinee performance.
