Winner of nine Tony Awards, FIDDLER ON THE ROOF has touched audiences worldwide with its message of humor, warmth, and honesty. Set in the tight-knit, traditional Jewish community of Anatevka, Tevye, a poor milkman, his wife Golde, and their five daughters face the changing social mores and the growing anti-Semitism of 1905 Czarist Russia. Filled with iconic and beloved songs such as “Sunrise, Sunset,” “If I Were a Rich Man,” and “Matchmaker, Matchmaker,” this universal musical will leave you and your family crying tears of sadness, laughter, and joy.
