Why see Fiddler on the Roof?

An Authentic Yiddish Revival Of Fiddler On The Roof

Beloved musical theatre classic Fiddler On The Roof smashed records when its first 1964 run on Broadway surpassed over 3000 performances, garnering a total of nine Tony Awards for its humour, warmth, honesty and celebration of the proud Jewish tradition. Now the Jerome Robbins and Harold Prince penned hit enjoys an all new Yiddish language staging of the iconic musical thanks to the National Yiddish Theatre Folksbiene and a creative team including Oscar and Tony Award-winning director Joel Grey.

A chance to witness an authentic rendition of the rousing tale of Tevye and his daughters, the North American premiere of The Fiddler In Yiddish chronicles the struggles of the poor Jewish milkman in the rapidly changing world of the early 1900s, against the backdrop of the pogroms and forced expulsions of Jewish shtetls in Russia. Three of his five headstrong daughters are determined to marry for love, but Tevye is as equally determined to make them stable matches that align with their traditions, aware that the balance of their lives is as precarious as a fiddler perched on a roof.

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
