Join us for the timeless classic, Fiddler on the Roof, as Tevye learns to balance his love for his traditions with his love for his family. One weekend only!
Fiddler on the Roof, the play is based on an amalgam of stories written by Solomon Naumovich Rabinovich under the pen name Sholem Aleichem, which is Hebrew for “peace be unto you.”
The musical takes place on a fictional Russian shtetl, or Jewish village, called Anatevka during the reign of Tsar Nicholas II. Tevye, a poor dairy farmer, has raised his five daughters with his wife, Golde, according to Jewish tradition.
But one by one, his three oldest daughters resist tradition by marrying the men they choose rather than those designated by a matchmaker, and Tevye accepts the bending of tradition insofar as it does not violate Jewish law.
But the Tsar’s increasing persecution of Russian Jews leads to the violent disruption of the villagers’ lives, culminating in the forced removal of the Jewish people from the town.
Although they lose their homes and land, Tevye and his fellow villagers persist, preparing to restart their lives in new places.
