Why see Fiddler on the Roof?
The Musical Classic Returns!
Following 2016's wildly acclaimed Broadway revival, the classic Fiddler on the Roof is out on tour! A landmark show born of the Golden Age of American musicals, Fiddler is a boisterous, heartfelt tale of love and acceptance set in a Russia on the edge of revolution. Among the show's countless iconic songs written by Jerry Bock and Sheldon Harnick are "If I Were A Rich Man", "Matchmaker, Matchmaker", and "Sunrise, Sunset."
Directed by Bartlett Sher
Fiddler first premiered on Broadway in 1964, and won an incredible nine Tony Awards. It was subsequently adapted for the silver screen, winning three Oscars. The latest Broadway production, led by the irrepressible Danny Burstein, proved to be a worthy successor, playing over 400 performances and picking up three Tony Awards, including Best Revival of a Musical and Best Choreography. With Tony winner Bartlett Sher in the director's chair
WHAT IS FIDDLER ON THE ROOF ABOUT?
At the turn of the 20th Century, Russia is a country on the brink of revolution. Although the chaos seems to seldom touch the isolated family of Tevye the Milkman, he sees the effect on his three elder daughters and the lives that they choose the lead.
Tzeitel, the oldest has little prospects for a poor woman, when the widowed and ancient butcher Lazar Wolf shows interest in her whilst she pines for the poor tailor Motel, it begins a story of rebellion, violence, love and acceptance that finds Tevye and the family learning to leave behind their old lives and start a new one full of hope and laughter!

Fiddler on the Roof
The cast was terrific but the actor that played Yenta was not a good fit. The first act was phenomenal from start to finish! The second act was a letdown. In total the show is well worth attending. ... Read more

Fiddler Returns to Broadway
Show still in previews:Fiddler is an amazing show with incredible music and a poignant story. Almost everyone has either seen the show or movie and knows the
songs. Its really hard to be critical of such an incredible show, but here it goes: 1st: the show was too long. There were times I was actually bored. I can't be specific, but
some scenes just dragged a bit..for me. 2nd: I like to be inspired by a performance. With a show like Fiddler, its hard to break new ground and really I wouldn't
necessarily want that. Other than some energetic and clever dances in the wedding scene, I just felt a bit of flatness. 3rd: I don't want to be harsh, I really couldn't act,
sing or dance my way out of a paper bag, but it seemed like some of the cast members were under the weather. That's the nicest way I can say it. Several of the leading
men and Golda had come weak moments when singing, but then were amazing a scene later. Lets call it choppy performances by some. Still highly recommend tho ... Read more
