Swithin, I saw Danny Burstein as "Billis" in the revival of "South Pacific" at Lincoln Center with Kelly O'Hara and he was wonderful as was the entire production. So I think he would make an excellent Tevye. As for Alfred Molina, I saw him in the 2004 production of Fiddler On The Roof, and Mr. Harnick is correct that Mr. Molina's performance was "held back". You could sense that he wanted to really give more but was constrained and as per your conversation with Sheldon Harnick, the direction of this production was not good. I'm a big fan of Alfred Molina - so perhaps he could come back in another production of Fiddler that would match his great acting ability. Still, I saw Fiddler with Zero Mostel four times - two times during the original Broadway cast production and twice during the revival. He's the master in this role. I was truly disappointed when he was not cast as Tevye in the movie.

TopBilled, I loved the photo you posted of Jerry Lewis' characters in "The Family Jewels". It looks as though it may have been used in billboard advertisements for the movie. I haven't learned yet (hopefully I will) how to post anything on this website.
Anyhow, here are a few more deserving mention:
Elsa Lanchester - 2 characters in The Bride of Frankenstein
Mel Brooks - 3 characters in Blazing Saddles, 2 characters in Spaceballs, & 5 characters in The History of the World Part I
Edward G. Robinson - 2 characters in The Whole Town's Talking
Charles Chaplin - 2 characters in The Great Dictator
Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. - twins in The Corsican Brothers
Bob Hope - 2 characters in My Favorite Spy
Danny Kaye - 2 characters in each - Wonder Man, On the Riviera, On the Double
Ronald Colman & Stewart Granger - 2 characters in The Prisoner of Zenda (1937 & 1952)
Lee Marvin - 2 characters in Cat Ballou
Eleanor Parker - 2 characters in The Woman In White (1948)
Kevin Kline - 2 characters in Dave
Hayley Mills & Lindsay Lohan - twins in The Parent Trap (1961 & 1998)
Gene Wilder & Donald Sutherland - 2 sets of twins in Start The Revolution Without Me
Bette Midler & Lily Tomlin - 2 sets of twins in Big Business
Paul Dano - twins in There Will Be Blood

Swithin, I agree with you about Zero Mostel as owning the role of Tevye in Fiddler On The Roof. The only other actor I could come up with would be Ron Moody as Fagin in the West End production of Oliver and the same role in the movie.
Princess is "the authority" on all things tap and musical. We'll await her response.

Princess, You're correct. It's Hal Linden. BTW, I first saw Hal Linden in the Broadway musical Wildcat starring Lucille Ball. Lucy was absolutely marvelous and on stage in almost every scene and musical number. One of my favorite Broadway musicals.
Princess, the thread is yours.
