Roy Schwab To Perform At Music in the Park July 4, 2024
As it was previously announced to the public, because of the Random Lake School District’s major reconstruction project, Lakeshore Productions, Inc, has postponed its summer 2024 musical, Fiddler on the Roof. As a way to stay active and in front of the community, some LPI alumni will be performing at Music in the Park during the bands’ set breaks.
On July 4th , during Tommy Odetto’s break, Roy Schwab will be performing.
