FIDDLER IS ALMOST HERE...
Come celebrate ‘tradition’ at the Torrance Theatre Company!
TORRANCE, CA – FIDDLER ON THE ROOF, by Joseph Stein with music by Jerry Bock and lyrics by Sheldon Harnick, runs August 11 - 25 at the James Armstrong Theatre at the Torrance Cultural Arts Center, 3330 Civic Center Drive in Torrance. Reserved seating is $35 for adults, $30 for seniors and $25 for children 13 and under (ticket prices include a $2.50 box office service fee). All adults will get in for $30 on opening night, where there will be free entertainment in the theatre plaza beginning at 6pm for this special event. Tickets go on sale July 5th and are available through the Armstrong Box Office, (310) 781-7171. FIDDLER plays August 11, 18, 24, and 25 at 8 pm and August 12 and 19 at 2pm. For more info, visit www.torrancetheatrecompany.com. For reviewer tickets, contact 310.618.3843.
L’Chaim! To celebrate the great traditions of Torrance Theatre Company since its opening in 1999 as well as the great “traditions” in the small Jewish village of Anatevka, we will be kicking off our 14th consecutive musical summer with one of Broadway's greatest musicals of all time, Fiddler on the Roof. With music by Jerry Bock, lyrics by Sheldon Harnick and book by Joseph Stein, Fiddler on the Roof has become one of the most iconic movie musicals of all time. Based on the stories of Sholom Aleichem, the film starring Chaim Topol has changed the lives of Americans since its screen debut in 1971. The original New York Stage production directed and choreographed by Jerome Robbins opened in 1964, where packed houses left the theatre in tears of joy, sadness and laughter due to the show’s captivating story, songs, and dance numbers.
Set in Tsarist Russia in the quaint village of Anatevka in 1905, Tevye does his best to maintain the beloved traditions of his religion despite his strong-willed daughters’ individual wishes to make their own matches. Tevye, a poor milkman and father of five daughters, has to realize that times are changing and it is his love of family, pride and faith that help him face the dangerous forces in Anatevka that threaten to destroy the very life that he and his fellow villagers are trying to preserve.
Mark Esposito, original bottle dancer in Jerome Robbins’ Broadway will be choreographing Fiddler, along with returning director Jim Hormel and musical director Rick Heckman. Come celebrate the power of tradition and change with this multi-award-winning musical that has danced its way into the hearts of people all over the world for nearly 50 years. The heartwarming score features classics such as Tradition, Sunrise Sunset, Matchmaker and If I Were a Rich Man and the poignant story continues to reach people of all ages from all religions, social classes, and races. Fiddler on the Roof is an honest, humorous show with themes for the entire family to enjoy and you won’t want to miss Torrance Theatre Company’s rendition at the James Armstrong theatre this summer!

Social Media 2012-2013!
My name Ally Van Deuren and I am interning this summer as associate producer for Torrance Theatre Company’s production of Fiddler on the Roof! Thank you so much for supporting TTC! We want to get our name out there as much as possible, so please follow these sites and stay tuned for video footage of rehearsals, events, and more! It is my mission for the summer to post something every day, either here on the blog, Twitter, Facebook or on the website.
We are planning to announce the rest of the 2012-2013 season line-up at 1316 Cabaret as well as opening night of Fiddler on the Roof, and we’re sure that they will be plenty for all of us to get excited about!
Thanks for your interest in the TTC, and we’ll see you at the shows!

Follow us!
While the funds for arts budgets around the world are dwindling, TTC is working hard as ever to keep great theatre alive. We aim to bring even more opportunities for artists and audiences in the years to come; however, we need your support, so please stay connected here and on the other TTC pages to find out how you can help make a difference. We plan on using this blog to share information on dates, times and ticket prices for our shows, show video footage of rehearsal, announce audition information for actors, and much more.
1316 Cabaret!
The Friends of Torrance Theatre Company invite you to 1316 Cabaret, celebrating the TTC’s past and sharing exciting news about the future! Be treated to a night of fantastic music, food and friends and be the first to learn about the 2012-2013 season!
The evening begins with wine and hors d’oeuvres from some of Torrance’s most popular restaurants, including Red Car, Depot, BJ’s, 13321, Torrance Bakery, and more. Then, upon entering the theatre, you will be among the first to learn next season’s line-up. A musical revue will follow featuring music from past musical productions such as Chicago, Pirates of Penzance, West Side Story, Cabaret, and more as well as a special preview of this year’s summer musical, Fiddler on the Roof. After the show, be the first to purchase your 2012-2013 season subscription, with a special one-night-only discount offer, and enjoy coffee and desserts with the performers and creative team.
