There will be a screening of Norman Jewison’s beloved 1971 Oscar-winning musical, Fiddler On The Roof, adapted from the long running Broadway musical.  It stars Israeli actor Topol as Tevye, the milkman and co-stars Norma Crane as Golde, Yiddish Theater legend Molly Picon as Yente, and Leonard Fray as Motel. 
The film won three Oscars in 1972 for Best Sound, Best Music, and Best Cinematography, and was nominated for five more, including Best Director, and Best Picture.  Some of the wonderful music includes Tradition, If I Were A Rich Man, To Life, Matchmaker Sunrise, Sunset, Do You Love Me? among many others. 
In addition, each locale will feature an MC who will host the program that will feature Fiddler history and trivia question with prizes being awarded to audience members who are quickest with the answers.  This is a unique way for a truly versatile celebration.
