After nearly ten years of climbing up Broadway's ranks, working steadily in small roles or as an understudy or replacement, Danny Burstein shot to Broadway stardom with his hilarious performance as the great lover Aldolpho in THE DROWSEY CHAPARONE. Great supporting turns in shows like SOUTH PACIFIC, WOMEN ON THE VERGE OF A NERVOUS BREAKDOWN and FOLLIES followed, but up until now he's never been the guy to take the final bow on a Broadway stage.

That changed with the new hit revival of the classic FIDDLER on THE ROOF. As Tevye, the humble dairyman trying to keep up with his modern-thinking daughters, Burstein captivates audience with both humor and strong dramatics in his Tony-nominated performance.

Charitybuzz is hosting a new online auction for four tickets for the hit revival of FIDDLER ON THE ROOF, followed by a meet and greet with Danny Burstein after the performance. The package also includes a backstage tour, a signed poster and CD, and a $250 gift card to Glass House Tavern.

The winning bid supports The Actors Fund, a nationwide human services organization that helps all professionals in performing arts and entertainment. The Fund is a safety net, providing programs and services for those who are in need, crisis or transition. Visit actorsfund.org.
