BWW Blog: FIDDLER ON THE ROOF's Ben Rappaport- Dry? Just Add Water!

In between takes of a scene on 'The Good Wife' a few years ago, I was commiserating with veteran actor Zach Grenier-'Why is it that I'm completely relaxed in every shot EXCEPT my close up?' His response? 'Because this is for the ages. This will exist long after you and I are gone.' That's the weight you carry on your back in TV, film, and in the recording studio that you don't have in the theatre. In a play, there's always tomorrow night.

BWW Blog: FIDDLER ON THE ROOF's Ben Rappaport- The Old Country

'We are Russian Jews', my father would always tell me when I asked where we came from. From a very young age, I was curious about history; where people and things came from, origins, and remnants. Growing up in the US, I was used to the idea of the big melting pot - that a lot people here came from somewhere else for a better life. A lot of us, including myself, have very mixed backgrounds, and it can be overwhelming to piece together the puzzle that is your ancestry. Thankfully, we live in the golden age of the World Wide Web, and our collective curiosity and quest for a sense of identity and meaning has resulted in the creation of wonderful resources like ancestry.com.

Bill Burr to Bring Latest Tour to NJPAC, 6/17

) New Jersey Performing Arts Center (NJPAC) is proud to announce The Third Party Tour starring comedian and actor BILL BURR who comes to NJPAC's Prudential Hall for two exciting performances on Friday, June 17 at 7PM & 9:30PM. Bill Burr first gained notoriety for his recurring role on the second season of Chappelle's Show, he developed a comedic style of uninformed logic that has made him a regular with Conan O'Brien and Jimmy Fallon. Bill Burr stars in the highly acclaimed animated Netflix series, F Is For Family co-starring Laura Dern and Justin Long as the Murphy family.  He was recently seen in the hysterically funny Mark Wahlberg and Will Ferrell film, Daddy's Home and he co-stars opposite Kevin Costner in the indie film, Black or White, which recently made its World Premiere at The Toronto International Film Festival.

BWW Blog: FIDDLER ON THE ROOF's Ben Rappaport- My Road To Anatevka

Let's take a trip back in time, shall we? The year was 1993 (or '94, or '95....'96?), I was 7 (or 8, or 9...10?) years old, and my parents took my sister and me to the Three Little Bakers dinner theater in Wilmington, Delaware, where 'Fiddler On The Roof' was playing. Unfortunately, I don't remember much about this experience other than that it was the first time I ever had a Shirley Temple, the waitress made me cry, and the line for the prime rib buffet was very long. This was, however, the first time those famous first strains of Jerry Bock's violin solo entered the back of my brain and psyche, and never left. Over the next several years, Fiddler lightly weaved its way in and out of my life: the occasional off key rendition of 'Sunrise, Sunset' at Jewish Community North, catching the film on AMC, and that community theatre production that my synagogue's men's club brought their families to (ironically enough, the girl playing Hodel ended up being my prom date). While at Juilliard, my best friend, Scott and I saw the 2004 revival together TWICE. Once with Alfred Molina, and another time with Harvey Fierstein and Rosie O'Donnell. For over a decade, it's been part of our rotation of inside jokes to cast Tevye and Golde with obscure and asinine choices of actors, then perform 'Do You Love Me', impersonating said actors (Keanu Reaves as Tevye and Paula Deen as Golde, anyone?). As an American suburban Jewish kid growing up in the late '90s/early 00's, Fiddler was just part of the narrative -- Chinese Food on Christmas.
