Theatergoers were invited to purchase advance tickets for "Fiddler on the Roof" at a special discount as part of a limited-time offer, in which $5 from every ticket sold was donated to Girl Scouts of Greater Atlanta.

Following the completion of its acclaimed run of "Fiddler of the Roof," the Atlanta Broadway Series was thrilled to donate $12,545 to Girl Scouts of Greater Atlanta. In partnership with various charitable organizations on priority ticket offers, the Atlanta Broadway Series has helped raise thousands of dollars for non-profit groups around Atlanta.
