Memorable moments rarely stop in this ‘Fiddler’

At a preshow Utah festival orientation, a moderator asked who in the audience had never seen “Fiddler on the Roof.” Not a single person raised a hand. The good news is, this production demonstrates why the 1964 musical deserves that kind of popularity.

The beauty industry never stops trying to lure you into buying new primping products. With each season comes a slew of new lip glosses, eye shadow palettes and hair products that promise to do the kind of things miracles are made of.
