Do you feel that when Harvey Fierstein leaves this summer, that the current revival of Fiddle will close as well? He is the main attraction for the show right now and I was wondering how much longer this current revival could strive for.
Glengarry- Youve been posting a lot today!
I think it will last a bit longer without him. Maybe theyll get another "star" to take over Tevye.
He is contracted through September 4.
Yeah,
What's up with all the "Will ________ close?" threads?

Unless they get a really good star to take over and sell lots of tickets, I don't think it will last much beyond Harvey.
They're not even doing well know - let's hope they even survive 3 more months.

Ha! Now that I'd actually pay money for. Lord knows it couldn't be worse than his Emcee.
"Last I heard, John Stamos was taking over in September."
really??? ech.
The new fiddler revival was horrible, i hope it closes; i wouldnt see it again if zero mostel was playing tevye..they just ruined it..
i think the show has been running for way too long...id rather see another revival or a new show. what about a revival of "kiss of the spider woman"???
Yeah! Bill Show
I HOPE Harvery, when finishes fiddler, will bring Hairspray across to the UK, The West End needs this show!!

Besides Fiddler beyond Harvey, how about Harvey beyond Fiddler? My gosh, there must be a plethora of leading roles for him to prove it isn't necessary to sing in. And then what's to stop him from conquering the Met? Harvey was born to play Pagliacci. A whole unique take with his adorable vocal stylings.

if you actually see zero mostel...run.
I have to disagree. While I think the current FIDDLER is a beautiful, brilliant production, I just don't think it will last much longer.
