Fiddler on the Roof (A Fidler Afn Dakh)

Duration

2 hrs 30 mins

Watch one of the most famous musicals, Fiddler on the Roof came to life on Broadway in Yiddish, as the story was meant to be told! Delve into the world of Tevye and the close-knit community, and the conflict between trying to balance the realities in an ever-changing world and the traditions and cultures of yesteryear.

A musical written by Jerry Bock in 1905, Fiddler on the Roof is a story of a father from Tevye who hopes to maintain cultural traditions in the family. The first theatrical production of this musical was at Broadway in 1964, and it surpasses 3,000 performances owing to its incredible popularity. The director, Joel Grey, a Tony winner, is able to capture this emotionally charged music in a spectacular fashion and ensures that each loss aches feels as if it were your own. The dark themes are well complemented by the lighter aspects of the musical, and the protagonist's struggle between compassion and tradition makes it endearing.
