Quote from Barry in Fiddler

Barry: What's going on in here?
Murray: Not now, Barry. Adam's form is off. I got to coach some sense into the kid.
Barry: Sounds to me like a father demanding perfection and telling his son he's not good enough.
Adam: That's exactly what's happening.
Barry: Damn it, I want that!
Adam: Why?
Barry: 'Cause it's my dream to have a sports dad who spazzes out in the stands and calls me a lazy failure who needs to play harder.
Adam: Great. He's yours. Take him.
Murray: Oh, no. If we're gonna win this part, we got to buckle down and dig in.
Barry: Fine, forget sports! Whatever your dumb thing is, I'll do it.
Adam: It's "Fiddler on the Roof."
Barry: Great. I'll go on the roof right now with a fiddle.
Murray: You don't even have one!
Barry: I'm gonna go bongo on the roof. Where's the ladder?
Murray: Do not get the ladder.
Barry: Ladder it is.
Murray: Do not go in that garage and touch my ladder, moron! I mean it!
Barry: Too late, theater sports dad. I'll send a rope down for my bongos.

Quote from Adam

Miss Cinoman: People, the moment has arrived. My dearest theater students and kids who do stage crew for some reason...
Dan: I work best in the shadows.
Miss Cinoman: No one cares, Dan. This year, William Penn Academy will be performing the most important musical of our time "Fiddler on the Roof"! [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE.]
Dan: Oh! Oh! Oh!
Adam: Meh.
Jackie: "Meh"? Since when does Adam Goldberg "meh" a musical?
Adam: Fiddler's just so heavy and dreary and Russian. I'm more into the happy toe-tapping musicals, like "Music Man" or "Pippin" or not "Fiddler."
