GMS Presents "Fiddler on the Roof"

Galvin Middle School will perform "Fiddler on the Roof" on March 1 and 2, 2013.

It's time once again for another great performance brought to you courtesy of the Canton Public Schools Performing Arts program.

This weekend, it is the Galvin Middle School's turn to take the stage with their performance of the musical, "Fiddler on the Roof", under the direction of Galvin Middle School music teacher John Russell.

Set in Russia in the early 1900's, it is the story of Tevye, a poor milkman, who along with his wife Golde is raising five daughters.  Tevye attempts to maintain his family's strong Jewish traditions in the face of change and eventually through the eviction of the Jews from Russia by the Tsar.

The middle school students at the Galvin Middle School have certainly grown since some of us saw them in their elementary school plays. And, they give us a glimpse into the performers they will become when they enter Canton High.

Our students have been putting in hours of practice, learning lines, songs, dances and more. The finishing touches have been put on and they are ready for the curtain to go up.
