Superb Show For New Theatre

A big, bright show with a big, bright cast will be presented in the "new" War Memorial Theatre starting October 30. There will be 11 performances of "Fiddler On The Roof" (one of the world's most successful musicals) and the Operatic Society is very proud and pleased to stage this first ever production in the new theatre. "Fiddler" is richly costumed and contains several very popular musical numbers.
