' Fiddler on the Roof, ' the biggest success yet Fiddler on the roof. Sounds crazy? Well at B.G., you might say that each of us was a fiddler on the roof, trying to put on a simple, pleasant, musical production. You may ask, How so you keep alive your tradition while offering such stiff competition to your counterparts on the Broadway stages? That I can answer for you in one word: chutzpah! It takes chutzpah for a school as big as E.G., with students of many different interests, to unite itself for a goal such as the Herculean task of executing a Broadway musical such as Fiddler. It also takes a bit of moxie for that school to make such a successful musical. Kudos to Lancer- land! LEFT: Mrs. Joan Mossner demonstrates the finer points of a complicated dance step. BELOW LEFT: Tevye (Ron Marcotte) dreams of the life he would lead if he were a rich man. ABOVE: A bird ' s-eye view of Rostek and friends.
