Fiddler on the Roof Creative

Director
Tim KitchenTim Kitchen, director, began his theater journey as a theater kid in Dayton, Ohio, and has spent years both onstage and behind the scenes. Trained in lighting, stage design, and Ben Nye makeup, he has directed everything from high school musicals to full-scale Passion plays. Tim has served as makeup/hair designer for HAT Youth for the past three years and most recently appeared as The Narrator in Into the Woods with HAT Community Theater.
Tim is thrilled and humbled to direct Hometown Arts’ Fiddler on the Roof with such a gifted cast. His greatest joy is his family—his seven children (all fellow theater nerds), their spouses, and nine beautiful grandchildren. Tim also serves as senior pastor at First Baptist Church of Upper Burrell and gives all glory to God.
