  • is it just me or was that Lea Michele at the end?

  • @sugasuga425 You are correct sir - Lea Michele was in Fiddler (she played Sprintze) that year on Broadway - this was before Spring Awakening

  • I love Fiddler on the Roof, but my side is hurting from laughing so hard!!

  • Lea michelle :)

  • What do you do with a BA in Yiddish? Who the hell majors in that?

  • hannukah eve, do you love me?

    No....

  • Wait, Lea Michelle is in this??? Who does she play????

  • @Broadwaypuppet sprintze

    

  • love it!

  • What does the daughter say after the father says, 'this is mine. this is mine. this is mine. this is not mine. who the hell is this!' it sounds like she says 'he's a nine' but I'm not sure.

  • @defygravity1998 She says "he's in line"...

  • @defygravity1998 She says "he was in Nine", the revival that was going on with Antonio Banderas before the fiddler revival.

  • Hanukkah eve do you love me?

    No. 

  • Oh God, I've lost track of how many times I've watched this...

  • O...M...G!!!!!!! ROFLMAO!!!!!

  • SO GOOD. Awesome to see both Johnny Tartaglia and Barrett Foa there! Love Easter Bonnet, hilarious.

  • omg i just notice that was Lea Michele!!!!!!! seen this so many times nd did not notice that!!

  • LOL

  • Love, love, love this!!! Always love it when Broadway does satire, they are the best group to pull it off!!

  • Dubya!

  • Is that John Tartaglia??

  • @624sami Sure is!

  • Oh my GOD. I can't stop laughing. XDD

  • will someone tell me how to favorite this?

  • @interrobangt207 right below the video it says +add to click on the down arrow next to it and click favorite!

  • @stefunnyvmusic thank you so much! this is one of the only times ive come across a favorite-worthy video

  • Back off Finn. Rachel was into Princeton first!

  • I bet that one is Ben Brantley.

  • Oh Ben Brantley.... Yes please! That just made my day.

  • Why haven't I ever noticed Lea Michelle???!?!?!

    I've watched this video like 300 times!! D:

  • "Do you love meeee?"

    "...No."

    best part XD

  • Lea...Michele...

  • do you love me?

    no.

  • I just love how Trekkie Monster plays that Fiddler so badly and then proceeds to eat it.

  • One person got a bad review from Ben Gradley.

  • this is downright hilarious!

  • "On the other hand, on the other hand, tradition, sure, go ahead". Yep, that's Fiddler in five seconds.

  • In theatre you can be whatever you wish to be <3

  • This is the greatest thing I have ever seen.

  • THIS IS AWESOME!

  • oh hai lea michelle!!!

  • "I think he was in Nine Papa." I died

  • I heard "I think he was in line"...

  • wait did they ever do a rent mashup with anything????

  • @PS890 I'm not aware of Rent ever mashing up at the Easter Bonnet - usually they do a straight forward song. However, there are some great parody Rent songs they did for Forbidden Broadway. I know they did Seasons of Hype, This Ain't Boheme, Rant, Ouch There Tight. Just look for Forbidden Broadway Rent and there are some videos on You Tube. (My favorite Forbidden Broadway tunes - "God It's High" (Les Miz) and "Defying Chenoweth" (Wicked).

  • @jimraw1 oooooo super cool! thanks so much for the info :)

  • hil.ar.i.ous.

    who played Bielke?

  • @xxtontixx Molly Ephraim played Bielke. She's done several things including Into the Woods and was in the Disney 2008 movie College Road Trip. Most recently she was Ali in Paranormal Activity 2.

  • You know what would have been amazing, if they did purpose jew style

    "Oh look its a penny...its from the year i was born....I MUST BE JEWISH!"

  • "on the other hand, on the other hand, tradition, sure go ahead" = love.

  • "Do you love me?"

    "No."

    I just died.

  • My side hurts from laughing too much.

  • @saphuras1122 Thanks for all the positive comments. I think its the best of all the satire works such as Forbidden Broadway and such. The writers really created something special and all the actors did a wonderful job. I was so unhappy when the original video disappeared, but i was fortunate to stumble upon it by accident. This is what You Tube was created for - to bring us great performances we wouldn't be able to see otherwise (especially for a good cause).

  • Do you love me....?

    ....No.

  • Comment removed

  • seeing lea michele in this makes me wish theyd do avenue q on glee

  • JOHN!!

  • I love Lea Michele(: I loved her before Glee!

  • Best part ever!

  • Hahaha!!!

    This is mine....hello

    This is mine....howdy

    This is mine....hello

    This is.. Not mine? Who the hell is this kid?!

  • "WHO THE HELL IS THIS KID!?!?"

    "I think he was in Nine, Papa."

    lol

  • which year is this from?? because I don't know when Lea made Fiddler in the Roof and I know she was with SA in the Easter Bonnet in 2008 :S

  • @KatherineLupin This is from 2004. She did Fiddler for a couple of years playing Shprintze and Chava. I know she started working on Wendla for Spring Awakening in workshop as early as 2000, but she didnt appear on Broadway until six years later in the role. She also had a stint as Anne Frank in Washington DC in 2006.

  • "Hanukkah Eve, do you love me?"

    "...No."

  • Avenue Q + Fiddler on the Roof = amazing!

  • Who are the little boys that keep showing up?

  • @SpringSkies They're all from the cast of Fiddler on the Roof. They only have a small part though.

  • I love this. As I was watching I thought I saw Lea michele in the front but I didn't think it was her. It dawned on me that she did fiddler on the roof before spring awakening.

    "Do you love me?" "No" LOL :D

  • "Czar Dubya" XD

  • this was at the minkoff eh?

  • holy crap that's lea!!

  • Lea Michele and Princeton FTW!! :D

  • Cool *g*

  • Barrett Foa + Lea Michele = incredibly attractive couple.

    "Hanukkah Eve, do you love me?" "No."

    This whole thing is fantastic.

  • "Married??? I'll be brief: on the other hand, on the other hand, tradition!, sure go ahead" LOL I love Tevye (: This is beyond epic.

  • I think I died when he said "I'm Jewish American Princeton"

  • yep thats Lea Michele she was in the broadway production befor SA

  • Is that Lea Michele? I've watched this video a hundred times but its just now occured to me.

  • @ilovBHH Wow good catch! I forgot that Lea played Shprintze in the last revival of Fiddler - this was before she broke out in Spring Awakening.

  • @jimraw1 I thought it was her but I didnt remember who played Bielke opposite her. LOL!

  • @ilovBHH Molly Ephraim. I guess she is remembered for playing Little Red Riding Hood in the 2002 revival of Into the Woods. She's done some TV as well as was in a production of End Days at Studio Ensemble Theatre last year.

  • @ilovBHH Where?! I don't see her?! D:

  • @viiemzee She was Shprintze. Shes the first daughter Tevye touches here.

  • @viiemzee She was Shprintze.

  • @ilovBHH yeah thats her

  • AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • yay lea michele!

  • @HappyEmoz The Easter Bonnet Competition takes place once a year. This year's Easter Bonnet will be held Monday, April 26 (4 p.m.) and Tuesday, April 27 (2:30 p.m.) at the Minskoff Theatre. Each year the skits change (based in part of what shows are playing on Broadway). The cheap seats are like 20 and 40 bucks, but the decent tickets start at $120 and go up (its a fundraiser). It usually takes place the last Monday and Tuesday of April each year.

  • @HappyEmoz I guess there have been other "mash-ups" at the Easter Bonnet, but this is by far the best. The Easter Bonnet (in case you didn't know) is an event each year where Broadway shows create a "bonnet" which is auctioned off for Broadway Cares. They also present a short skit - in this case Fiddler and Avenue Q combined for the event. (You can see the bonnet at the end of the show which Tzeitel is wearing)

  • @HappyEmoz I don't think it's very common to see a true mixture of two musicals. Other than a show like Spamalot (which satyrizes shows like Les Miz, Andrew Lloyd Webber, West Side Story and others), most of the skits tend to throw in a song or two. This is one of the most creative combinations of two shows that I know of - but maybe other people have some idea about other broadway mashups out there?

  • This is incredible! I saw this video a couple of years ago and was NEVER able to find it!! Thank you so much for posting this I've watched it 5 times already in one night...is that terrible!?!? haahahah!!

  • I know what you mean Remys - I laughed so hard the first time I saw it. To be honest even after it was removed, someone posted it under the title 911 was an inside crime :D. I only discovered it when i was looking at Sept. 11. The guy is a conspiracy idiot but I am grateful for letting me find the video.

  • 4:10 .. xD hilarious combination these two! Wow!. xD

  • I'm doing a production of "Fiddler" right now, and the cast is SCREAMING with laughter over this. L'chaim and Mazel Tov, Avenue Q!

  • What's blowing my mind is that there is a delay from the actor saying to word to it making it through the sound system...but they have the puppet's mouth movements synced up perfectly to this delay. Incredible!

  • I totally agree. Even the best of Forbidden Broadway seems like an amateurish quick skit. This one actually seems like the writers took a lot of time and skill to create.

  • That was amazing. I loved it! The two least likely musicals to be blended! I love it. X3
