A musical theatre tradition and winner of 10 Tony
Awards when it debuted in 1965, Fiddler on the Roof is the brainchild of Broadway
legends Jerome Robbins, Harold Prince, songwriters Jerry Bock and
Sheldon Harnick, and bookwriter Joseph Stein. Touching audiences
worldwide with its humor, warmth and honesty, this universal show is a
staple of the musical theatre canon.
Set in the little village of Anatevka, the story centers on Tevye, a poor dairyman, and his five daughters. With the help of a colorful and tight-knit Jewish community, Tevye tries to protect his daughters and instill them with tradition in the face of changing social mores and the growing anti-Semitism of Czarist Russia. Rich in historical and ethnic detail, Fiddler on the Roof’'s universal theme of tradition cuts across barriers of race, class, nationality and religion, leaving audiences crying tears of laughter, joy and sadness.
Directed by Kathleen Junkins with musical direction by Susan den Outer, the show features beloved songs such as “Sunrise, Sunset,” “If I Were A Rich Man,” and “Matchmaker, Matchmaker.”
