FIDDLER ON THE ROOF
A celebration of love, family, God and above all...Tradition!
 
In the little village of Anatevka, Tevye, a poor dairyman, tries to instill in his five daughters the tradition of his tight-knit Jewish community in the face of changing social mores and the growing anti-Semitism of Czarist Russia. This heartwarming story is as full of humor, warmth and honesty as it is rich in history. Its universal themes speak of romance, the love of family, the importance of tradition and the need for a connection with God.
 
FIDDLER ON THE ROOF is Broadway at its very best. Its classic score is filled with such memorable numbers as "Sunrise, Sunset," "Matchmaker," "If I Were a Rich Man," and "Tradition" ... just to name a few. The script is a beautifully woven mix of laughs and tears as it carries the audience on Tevye's emotional journey. The cast (over 20) features many leading, supporting and ensemble performers to represent the lively village of Anatevka.
