Fiddler finishes and Awakenings auditions!

Hello fellow thespians!

It has been a whirlwind two weeks for the cast and crew of Fiddler on the Roof. They just wrapped up on the weekend and already there has been a review written about this wonderful gem of a play.

Mike Archer of Chilliwack Today writes about his experience, along with praises for Graham Archer and Linda McRae as Teyve and Golde, respectively. He writes "I was more than pleasantly surprised at last Saturday evening’s performance at the Chilliwack Cultural Centre … I was deeply moved by a near flawless performance"

Wow! What a review! Thank you Mike Archer of Chilliwack Today! For the article link, click here!

Theatre geek moment: within the article is a quote taken from my own mouth, credited to the Chilliwack Players Guild (which is clearly true, since I write for you lovely people). “A story of faith, family and the traditions of a certain milkman, who must learn about a new world.” Have you ever had been quoted before? Well, it sure does feel pretty neat! Cool!

And now for a quick reminder!
