One
of the best-loved stage and screen musicals of all time.
Tevye, the dairyman is an old-fashioned father who, like
the other fathers in the small village of Anatevka, has raised
his children to uphold the age-old Jewish customs of his
ancestors. Now the time has come to find husbands for his
beloved daughters and as tradition dictates, suitable matches
must be made. But this is Tsarist Russia, 1905 and as the
nation teeters on the brink of great upheaval, Tevye is soon
to find the young are guided by their hearts not their elders…
FIDDLER ON THE ROOF has captivated audiences around the globe
since its original Broadway opening in 1964. Winner of 9

is directed by Lindsay Posner (Tom and Viv at the Almeida
and Sam Shepherd’s Fool for Love, Apollo) and will
