I just read Harvey's memoirs- 'I Was Better Last Night'- he talks about doing this... before they decided who did what at the show and how there would be a fight between all the divas wanting to do 'Rose's Turn' Harvey suggested he do it and cut them all off beforehand. The director loved the idea and here we are... he was perfoming in Fiddler at the time, so no one was the wiser when he started out with that.
It’s every gay man’s dream to do this number.

That story in his memoirs is what brought me here. I was hoping there'd be a clip of it. lol

Love is Harvey Fierstein!
Y'know, some of the lines in "Rose's Turn" could apply to Tevye and his daughters.
I love him
Absolute legend
A role he was born to play

Soooo...who came here after reading about this in Harvey's book? (Or listened in my case since I did the audiobook)
Same! The Audiobook was the best way to read it honestly, felt like listening to a friend
Me
Me! I never knew he’d done “Fiddler” and wish they’d taped an entire performance with him as Tevye. I love his book! I am reading it now.
Literally this very moment. Hahah
Normally I would be against a man taking one of the perenial leading lady roles, but I would totally pay to see Gypsy staring Harvey Fierstein.
