Showcasing music by Jerry Bock, book by Joseph Stein, and lyrics by Sheldon Harnick, Fiddler on the Roof is based in the Pale of Settlement in Imperial Russia in or around the year 1905. Sholem Aleichem's story "Tevye and His Daughters" (also titled "Tevye the Dairyman") is the inspiration for this tour de force. As the story opens, Tevye, a milkman in the small town of Anatevka, is struggling to affirm the Jewish customs of his family in the face of fresh influences. Tevye has to accept the uniqueness of his three daughters and their desire to marry for love, despite his growing distaste for the men they want to marry. Eventually, the Tsar issues a decree ordering the Jews of the area to move.
This production took home nine Tony Awards, including those for best musical, score, book, direction, and choreography. In 1971, it was adapted into a successful film, and the five subsequent Broadway renditions have all been huge successes. Numerous school and community theater productions have also made use of it. Music such as "Tradition," "Sunrise, Sunset," "If I Were a Rich Man," "Matchmaker, Matchmaker," and "To Life (L'Chaim!)" are sure to intrigue the audience members and an absolutely brilliant ensemble means the story will genuinely come to life. If you enjoy musicals, you shouldn't miss this.
