Topol starring in Fiddler tourHow cool is that? He's 75 and still going strong as Tevye!He and Ted Neely still got it going on in their tours! |

HOLY JESUS! I loved Topol. Zero was funny, but I like a more balanced portrayal of Tevye, and I loooooooove Topol's voice!
Can he still sing the part, though? |

I guess I'll see when I go to see him next year. | ||

OMG REALLY?
Best Tevye ever. And he's so old! But he probably still rocks. |

Re: Topol starring in Fiddler tour
That means he was only 37-38 when he did the movie, which was released in 1971. Briefly, he appeared to be that age: During "Far from The Home I Love", there was a short flashback to a much younger Hodel (8 to 10) running into his arms. Probably Elaine Edwards or Candy Bonstein (Shprintze or Bielke) doubled as young Hodel; the role is uncredited. Anyone have a link to the schedule? If he hits my city, it's a don't miss! |

Re: Topol starring in Fiddler tour
Topol is a great performer and quite a good Tevye, but there is no comparing him to Ted. Fact. |
||
| Trevor reincarnate |
There is comparing.
They're both old. And they're both playing their only roles they've ever been good for. Still. |
||
| Beagle On Stage |
Ted is good for more than Jesus. That's simply the one he is famous for.
You're right that Topol is a one trick pony though. |
||
| Trevor reincarnate |
But that one trick is soooo freaking good. | ||

That's what Golde said. | ||

Why did no one respond to Beagle's comment (sorry to bump an old thread)? I wanna see the tour schedule. |
