Arizona Jewish Theatre Company

The Arizona Jewish Theatre Company (AJTC) is a member of the Theatre Communications Group, the International Association for Jewish Theatre and the Arizona Theatre Alliance. It was a recipient of the 1991 Belle Latchman Community Service Award. In 1994, the Company received the B'nai B'rith Women's Humanitarian Award for the work it does in bridging gaps of multi-cultural understanding, through the subject matter of its plays as well as the diversity of its casts, crews, and audiences. In 2000, the Company again received the Belle Latchman Community Service Award, this time for its Dear Esther school project, which brought in over 1500 school children to see this moving Holocaust remembrance. The Company has also received numerous AriZoni nominations and awards, and the producing Director, Janet Arnold, was named creative artist of the year as part of the YWCA Tribute to women 2001. This award is given to women in the community who have helped to empower women and to eliminate racism.

    I thoroughly enjoyed this production of the show (which I have seen before, though not done as well). The songs were beautifully sung, they had a fun video screen with multimedia on it and some great lighting moods. If you like Cabaret or Chicago or NY, NY, you will like this. I highly recommend it.

    The play was very enjoyable and entertaining, full of humor and real life characters. The acting was good. I especially liked the performance of Mike as Father and Christian as Joe, but all the cast did a good job. The stage design was beautiful, and so were the costumes, which was surprising for a small local theatre. I would greatly recommend the play. Collapse

    very well done. Tevya does an amazing job of interacting with the audience and keeps you engaged for the full 3 hours. The daughters were especially noteworthy. The only thing that keeps it from getting a 5 is that it's been done a million times and it's mostly the same show you've seen, but done right. check it out. Collapse
