Plot
Following Jewish customs, protagonist Tevye, an old-fashioned milkman living in Anatavka during turbulent 1905 Russia, seeks to marry off his treasured daughters who, by tradition, must marry their perfect match. Yet in a period of history where the young are becoming increasingly free-willed and independent, his daughters wish to marry for love.
With the Russian revolution bubbling in the background, Tevye must face other threats in the tiny Jewish village of Anatavka. A spectacular rendition of this well-known plot, Fiddler on the roof is a must-see classic for any avid theatre-goer.Playhouse Theatre
