Synopsis
In the little village of Anatevka, Tevye, a poor dairyman, tries to instill
in his five daughters the traditions of his tight-knit Jewish community 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” has touched
audiences around the world with its humor, warmth and honesty. It's
universal theme of tradition cuts across barriers of race, class,
nationality and religion, leaving audiences crying tears of laughter,
joy and sadness.
The show features a star turn in Tevye, among the most memorable roles
in musical theatre. Original director/choreographer Jerome Robbins'
staging is legendary, and available from MTI in a comprehensive
choreographic guide. Its celebrated score by Jerry Bock and Sheldon
Harnick, features songs loved the world over: "Sunrise, Sunset," "If I
Were A Rich Man" and "Matchmaker," to name a few. “Fiddler On The Roof”
is simply Broadway at its very best.
