Topol in Fiddler on the Roof

I really couldn’t help but sing along, this is my favourite musical of all time! 

Lainey’s Review: Fiddler on the Roof

Topol’s theatrical performance was as stunning as his performance on screen in the early 70’s. Funny to say that he hasn’t changed much in his characterization of Tevye, the father of a traditional family in Russia during the First World War. As the modern world starts to impact the lives of the village, and Tevye’s family (including his five daughters) the world becomes a new place. Topol is on an international tour and during their one month of performances at Her Majesty’s Theatre in Melbourne, with an exceptional cast of 35 of Australia’s best actors, singers and dancers including Judith Roberts, Barry Crocker and Maggie Kirkpatrick.

This was a wonderful production with great dance and musical numbers. Topol gave a top notch performance in his role as Tevye and really made me love this musical all over again.  If you can catch this international tour starring Topol, buy tickets right away.
