Next Production

The Livingston Players return with one
of the world’s favourite musicals

In 1905, in rural Russia on the eve of the Revolution, Jewish milkman Tevye tries to cope with day-to-day life, Jewish traditions and the women in his life. With five daughters, a headstrong wife, a contrary horse and a severe lack of money this proves quite a challenge. He struggles to come to terms with the strong-willed actions of his three older daughters, with each one's choice of husband moving further away from the customs of the Jewish faith, and the terrible Pogroms to evict the Jews from their village. Featuring the classic songs Tradition, Sunrise, Sunset, Matchmaker, Sabbath Prayer and If I were a Rich Man this is a timeless classic with something for everyone. A highly entertaining evening, filled with humour and tenderness.

Rehearsals start on Thursday 3rd June at 7.15 in
Caromdean Community Centre Church, Fells Rigg, Livingston.

Performance dates - Tuesday 28th September to Saturday 2nd October 2010
