Everyone is cast. I'm not that familiar with any of the cast members, but I'm excited the cast is set, and rehearsals are beginning soon!

Posted: 12/1/03 at 8:48pmlooking at the cast list though, it seems like there are an awful lot of guys in the cast and only a few girls.

Posted: 12/1/03 at 9:47pmi dont understand that either.. Were there open calls for the daugters? I thought they were only hiring adults.. But Molly and Lea are not adults.. Are they?
#18re: re: re: re: Fiddler On The Rood Cast announced!
Posted: 12/1/03 at 9:51pm
It wouldn't make sense casting all adults because there are many child/teenage roles, obviously. I also agree with Amneris, that they should have let unknowns take the roles. If they have Alfred Molina as the star, using an unknown as Hodel, Chava, or Tzeital even, wouldn't hurt.

Posted: 12/1/03 at 9:53pmthere were MANY MANY equity calls in NYC and 1 HUGE open call in NYC for HODEL and that was packed with over 600 girls... they only saw 400 of us though... Tevye and Golde have 2 young daughters who are not a huge part of the show so those are supposed to be "real young" but, the 2 girls playing THOSE 2 parts should really be the age of Chava and Hodel...

Posted: 12/1/03 at 10:06pmI'm pretty sure Molly is 16 years old...oh wait...maybe 17. I have no idea how old Lea is.

Posted: 12/1/03 at 10:18pmMolly is underestimated. She made poor character choices in INTO THE WOODS, but she is a nice actress. I don't understand why everyone who hated the revival hated her the most.
"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

Posted: 12/1/03 at 10:22pmI agree CapnHook, I didn't think Molly was horrible at all. I liked her. It was the way she was directed. I personally enjoyed the take on the role.
