SUMMARY:Fiddler on the Roof
DESCRIPTION:Fiddler on the Roof (PG) at the BCPA\nMusic by Jerry Bock\nLyrics by Sheldon Harnick\nBook by Joseph Stein \nBased on Sholom Aleichem’s Tevye and his Daughters\, Fiddler on the Roof is the beloved story of the small\, tradition-steeped town of Anatevka\, Russia\, where Jews and Russians live in delicate balance. During the course of the show\, the time honored traditions of Anatevka are both embraced and challenged by Tevye and his colorful community\, as they witness his daughters\, Tzeitel\, Hodel and Chava\, grow up and fall in love in a time of extraordinary change. Fiddler on the Roof’s Broadway premier became the longest-running Broadway musical in history\, a title it maintained for almost 10 years. It is a story that captures the essential human longings for love\, community\, success\, freedom\, family\, and meaning.\nSongs include: “Sunrise\, Sunset\,” the boisterous “If I Were a Rich Man”\, and the classic “Matchmaker\, Matchmaker.” and more.\nFor more information\, please call 406-837-4886 or visit our site for tickets: https://bigforksummerplayhouse.com/ \n  \n

SUMMARY:The Addams Family
DESCRIPTION:The Addams Family (PG-13) at Bigfork Summer Playhouse\nBook by Rick Elice & Marshall Brickman​\nMusic & Lyrics by Andrew Lippa \nIn the kooky\, upside-down world of the Addams Family\, to be sad is to be happy\, to feel pain is to feel joy\, and death and suffering are the stuff of their dreams. Nonetheless\, this quirky family still has to deal with many of the same challenges faced by any other family\, and the spookiest nightmare faced by every family creates the focus Lippa\, Brickman\, and Elice’s musical: the Addams kids are growing up. The Addamses have lived by their unique values for hundreds of years and Gomez and Morticia\, the patriarch and matriarch of the clan\, would be only too happy to continue living that way. Their dark\, macabre\, beloved daughter Wednesday\, however\, is now an eighteen year-old young woman who is ready for a life of her own. She has fallen in love with Lucas Beineke\, a sweet\, smart boy from a normal\, respectable Ohio family — the most un-Addams sounding person one could be! And to make matters worse\, she has invited the Beinekes to their home for dinner. In one fateful\, hilarious night\, secrets are disclosed\, relationships are tested\, and the Addams family must face up to the one horrible thing they’ve managed to avoid for generations: change.\n​Songs include: “When You’re an Addams”\, “Pulled”\, “One Normal Night”\, “The Moon & Me”\, “Crazier Than You” and more.\nFor more information\, please call 406-837-4886. \nTickets:  https://bigforksummerplayhouse.com/tickets/ \n

SUMMARY:4th of July Parade
DESCRIPTION:JULY 4th PARADE @ 12:00 PM\n\n\n\n\nVolunteers are needed!  Please sign up here.\nBigfork knows how to throw a party. And when it is our country’s birthday\, Bigfork really knows how to celebrate. Centerpiece of the celebration is the annual parade through Bigfork which begins at noon. Bring your whole family to view our great parade to celebrate the birth of our country. The 4th of July Parade in Bigfork is a Flathead Valley favorite. \nThis year’s 4th of July Parade theme is “There’s No Place Like Home.” \nParking for the parade will be in the field at the intersection of Highway 35 and 82. From this parking area only\, free shuttle service is available to downtown from 8am-5pm. For everyone to have a clear view of the parade\, there will be no cars allowed in downtown Bigfork after 8 am on the 4th. \nFloats must pre-register. Click Here to Register a Float.  The Bigfork Area Chamber of Commerce will be charging a fee to help cover the costs associated with the parade. Floats will be judged on Entertainment Value\, Originality\, Craftsmanship\, and Interpretation of the Theme\, along with a classic car category. \nThis year\, parade organizers are paying extra care to the energy and messages from participants both in and watching the parade. We are asking that all individuals attending the parade in any capacity remember this is a community event – welcoming to all and strictly non-partisan.  Please keep this in mind if you are planning to attend or participate in the parade. Any person or float that is deemed by parade organizers as offensive or political will be removed from the event.  We are proud of where we live in and excited to invite the Flathead Valley to this non-partisan celebration of America’s birthday. Campaigning Candidates are allowed to participate with respectful campaign signage only.\n \nThe parade begins at noon with members of the military.  They will pause at the Bigfork Inn to present colors while the National Anthem is sung. \nParade Rules: \n\nThe parade organizers will remove any person and or float that is deemed to be political or offensive. This is a non-partisan community event.\nItems may not be thrown into the crowd. Walkers with your float may hand out items or they may be gently tossed toward the feet of spectators.\nNo confetti cannons or throwing confetti. Confetti leaves lasting litter throughout our village.  If any person on your float is seen breaking this rule\, you will be required to pay for clean-up.\nParade line up starts at 9 am and closes at 11 am.\nLineup is first come/first in line\nThere is no place holding\nAnimals and livestock are welcome to join the parade after the rest of the float and before the Flathead Lake Lodge firetruck – who is last.

SUMMARY:Grease
DESCRIPTION:GREASE  (PG-13) at Bigfork Summer Playhouse \nBOOK AND MUSIC BY\nCASEY WARREN AND JIM JACOBS \nIt’s 1959\, and Rydell High School’s senior class is in rare form. The too-cool-for-school “Burger Palace Boys” are stealing hub-caps and acting tough and their gum-snapping\, chain-smoking “Pink Ladies” are looking hot in bobby sox and pedal pushers. The 1950s high school dream is about to explode in this rollicking musical that is both an homage to the idealism of the fifties and a satire of high schoolers’ age-old desire to be rebellious\, provocative and rebellious. At the heart of the story is the romance between hot-rodding gangster Danny Zuko and the sweet new girl in town\, Sandy Dumbrowski. They had a secret romance in summer\, but now back in the context of school\, peer-pressure and cliques make their love a bit more complicated. Can Danny maintain his cool dude status and still get make demure Sandy his girl? The whole gang sings and dances around Danny and Sandy’s romance\, through such hit songs as “Greased Lightnin’”\, “We Go Together”\, and “Mooning”\, recalling the music of Buddy Holly\, Little Richard and Elvis Presley that became the soundtrack of a generation. Starting off with an eight-year Broadway run\, Grease is among the world’s most popular musicals and has a cult-like following\, especially among teens!\nSongs include:  “Summer Nights”\, “Raining On Prom Night”\, “Greased Lightning”\, “Mooning”\, “Freddy My Love”\, “The Hand Jive” and many more!\nFor more information\, please call  406-837-4886 \nFor tickets:  https://bigforksummerplayhouse.com/tickets/

SUMMARY:Jimmy Buffet’s Escape to Margaritaville
DESCRIPTION:Jimmy Buffet’s Escape to Margaritaville (PG-14) at the Bigfork Summer Playhouse\nBook by Emmy Award winner Greg Garcia and Emmy nominee Mike O’Malley\nMusic & Lyrics by Jimmy Buffett \nThis musical tells the story of a sweet romance between an island-dweller and a tourist\, using the music of Jimmy Buffett. It is just what it promises: an escape to a warm climate full of singing\, dancing\, and tequila.\nThe musical\, which premiered in 2017\, has music and lyrics by Jimmy Buffett with a book written by Greg Garcia and Mike O’Malley. Singer Tully works at a run-down beach resort called Margaritaville alongside a bartender named Brick. He’s happy to spend his days relaxing and flirting with the tourists\, while avoiding anything that looks like commitment.Meanwhile\, environmental scientist Rachel is reluctant to take a break from work to go on vacation with her best friend Tammy. Rachel can’t stand Tammy’s jerkish fiancé Chadd and is dreading their wedding when they return from Margaritaville.\nWhile Rachel is dismayed that the resort is not as nice as it looked online and to find out that she has no phone service on the island and thus can’t keep working\, she is eventually able to get into the island spirit with some help. Tully and Brick spend time with Rachel and Tammy and sparks fly between the two couples. But after Rachel and Tammy return to Cincinnati\, will anything become of their romances?\nSongs include: “Cheeseburger in Paradise”\, “Margaritaville\,” “It’s Five O’Clock Somewhere\,” “Fins\,” “Volcano”\, and many more.For more information\, please call 406-837-4886 or tickets visit our website: https://bigforksummerplayhouse.com/ \nChampagne reception following the July 6th performance.
