Description

Best known for writing Fiddler on the Roof, Jerry Bock and Sheldon Harnick wrote a number of interesting and innovative shows from 1958 to 1968, ending with The Rothschilds. The course will examine background of the team and present excerpts from their lesser-known work, including the underrated She Loves Me. As a bonus, the class will view an interview with lyricist Harnick discussing his work and singing (very musically) songs for which he wrote the lyrics.
