You've got to hand it to them... not only does the National Youth Music Theatre produce stars, they also put on some darn fine productions. We recently chatted to NYMT star Marc Pickering and much of his acting experience was credited to his time there. Now, a new production is in full swing - from what we've heard, you'd be mad to miss it.
Fiddler on the Roof is the latest NYMT musical to hit our eyes and ears and with director Caroline Leslie, (the new Artistic Director) calling the shots, it's bound to be a good 'un. Chances are, you've heard of the musical before. It's well-known and amongst the persecution, and poverty, there are a few good old favourite tunes such as The most well known numbers include ‘If I Were A Rich Man’, ‘Tradition’ and ‘Matchmaker, Matchmaker’.
The music is by Jerry Bock with lyrics by Sheldon Harnick and book by Joseph Stein. You'd best get snappy though... the show's run is at the Bridewell Theatre until Saturday 14 April. In this case, dawdling, fiddling and general tardiness is not advised. Who knows, with stars like Matt Lucas, Connie Fisher and Jude Law under their belt, you may well see a brand new heart-throb in the making.
