I'm almost 14 and have been casted in a regional production of Fiddler as Yussell. All i know is he has lines, and is a hatmaker!
Can anyone give me any specific details or any info I don't all ready know?
Anything would be appreciated!

Yussell has lines in Scene 8 in Mttel's tailor shop and is specifically mentioned in the Prologue ("Tradition"). He's also in any scene with male villagers, like the "To Life" scene and the "Anatevka" final scene. I'm so glad and slightly envious of your involement in this wonderful musical. I loved being in plays 30 years ago and loved being in musicals even more. Break a leg.

Yussell is basically one of the villagers. He is among the men as they talk to the Rabbi, converses with Tevye, and joins in singing some of the chorus numbers. (Tradition, Sabbath Prayer, To Life, The Dream Sequence, the Wedding Dance, and the Finale).
The IBDB.com database on Fiddler lists all the cast members, and Yussell is listed near the bottom.
Fiddler is a great show to be in the chorus. You get lines and a character to play, which is much different from most shows. (You can put the role on a theatrical resume.) You have some great songs to sing, and you are on the stage fairly frequently, particularly in Act 1.
Have a great time.
