Bill H //\\ Theodore Bikel and Traditions (31) RE: Theodore Bikel and Traditions 14 May 09


Art---Sorry to say we cannot archive but it is on twice as you see in the note--a week apart.

Bubblyrat---your questions were answered but not his birthplace---which was Vienna, Austria. Something we willtouch upon in our conversation. ALso his thoughts on the Pope's visit to the Middle East given Theodore Bikel's role (which he felt strongly about) in a play---The Gathering. That was an amazing bit of work which I saw about 7 or so years ago.


Actually the original Tevya was Zero Mostel---Theodore Bikel did play the part many times. As noted he did create Capt. Von Trapp on the Bway Stage (co-star Mary Martin).

Frankly--given all his talents and interests ---a shorter list would be what did he NOT do. Hopefully you all can tune in since he will talk of his various lecture tours (and the topics), the upcoming gala birthday bash at Carnegie Hall with an amazing line-up, and music from his career in many languages, genres, etc;
