I may suggest this to the folks putting together the "Fiddler on the Roof" program:

BTW -- We are officially 'off book' tomorrow. Eep. I am close, actually. Need to keep all the speechifying separate in my head. (Tevye says a lot of the same things over and over and over and over... with slight variations depending on to whom he is talking. If I 'jump tracks' and start on the wrong passage, it's going to be all over.)
Saturday is set-construction. And on Monday, we move from our rehearsal space to the actual auditorium. Can't wait. Not only to get a feel for the stage itself (it is considerably larger than our rehearsal site, but beggars can't be choosers) but also to enjoy a shorter commute (it's about 5 minutes from the house, as opposed to the 20 minutes we're driving now). That'll be helpful as run-throughs stretch into the night.
If you've come to the show this evening with something that rings, beeps, twitters, or plays snippets of popular music, please take a moment to turn it off now. Or at least switch them to "vibrate" so you may enjoy it in the privacy of your own pants.
