It’s 1979, and a crazy cornucopia of A-listers are lining up for a night of hilarity aboard a floating casino and discotheque! There’s a faded disco star, a sexy singer with her eleven-year-old twins, a disaster expert, a feminist reporter, an older couple with a secret, a pair of young guys looking for ladies, an untrustworthy businessman and a nun – with a gambling addiction! What begins as a night of boogie fever changes to a gleeful panic as they endure wacked out disasters, such as earthquakes, tidal waves and infernos – plus killer rats! Featuring hit songs of the ’70s like “I Will Survive”, “Hawaii Five-O”, “Three Times a Lady”, “I Am Woman”, “When Will I Be Loved” and many more, DISASTER! is Broadway’s side-splitting homage to classic disaster films.

A Timeless Story Comes to Life Mars Hill Academy Presents FIDDLER ON THE ROOF – March 26-28

Maggie Magill as Golde, Zeke Crocker as Tevye, and Grace Magill as Tzeitel

“Tradition!” takes center stage this spring as Mars Hill Academy proudly presents FIDDLER ON THE ROOF

Audiences are invited to step into the village of Anatevka, where Tevye, a warmhearted milkman, his wife Golde, and their five spirited daughters find themselves caught between the comforts of long-held traditions and the uncertainties of a changing world. With humor, heart, and a few miracles of its own, this family-friendly production brings to life the timeless struggle of holding fast to faith while the world begins to “turn, turn, turn.”

“Fiddler on the Roof is a story about the tension between tradition and change — something every generation faces,” explained director Abbie Patrick. “Our cast has embraced these characters with remarkable depth and joy, and I believe audiences will see not only a beautiful musical, but also a reflection of enduring faith and hope. This is also very much a story for families and parents. We hope that parents who come to see our production see themselves in Tevye and Golde as they navigate their hopes, expectations, and fears for their children.”

Through rich storytelling and unforgettable songs, theatergoers can expect a performance that inspires laughter, reflection, and melodies that linger long after the curtain falls.

The cast includes Zeke Crocker of Maineville as Tevye, Maggie Magill of Maineville as Golde, Grace Magill of Maineville as Tzeitel, Emma May of Mason as Hodel, Adali Belcher of Maineville as Chava, Christian Shehane of Springboro as Motel, Hugh Patrick of Clarksville as Perchik, Marko Mavridis of Lebanon as Fyedka, Adelaide Solomon of Mason as Yente, and Elijah Forster of Clarksville as Lazar Wolf.

Other cast members include Camdon Hutchinson of Cincinnati as Mordcha, Abel Johnson of Middletown as the Rabbi, Liam Bedinghaus of Loveland as Mendel, Christopher Sheldon of Fairfield as Avram, Eli Lewandowski of Pleasant Plain as the Fiddler, William Wheeler of Centerville as the Constable, Emily Frank of Mason as Grandma Tzeitel, Louisa Graham of Loveland as Fruma Sarah, Elliana Walls of Maineville as Shaindel, Luke Perin of West Chester Twp. as Nachum, and Drew Pullins of Liberty Twp. as Sasha.

The ensemble also features Sydel Belcher of Maineville, Lydia Bell of Cincinnati, Esther Costa of Cincinnati, Will Davis of Middletown, Ryanne Franks of Maineville, Clara Graham of Loveland, Naomi Johnson of Mason, Kaden Knodel of Springboro, Lydia LaFleur of West Chester Twp., Clara Grace Mahl of Lebanon, Rebecca Minick of Glendale, Annie Pawlak of Mason, Ellery Powers of Maineville, Joshua Sheldon of Fairfield, Abby St. Clair of Maineville, Leon Tu of Cincinnati, Ellie Warren of Loveland, and Annie Wheeler of Centerville.
