Synopsis

Experience Fiddler on the Roof in a new way – in Yiddish, the language of Tevye and his family! The rich Yiddish translation (with English and Russian supertitles) adds new depth and dimension to the most well-known Jewish musical in the world. Don’t miss the beloved story of a community and its struggle to balance traditions and desires in a changing world. The little town of Anatevka will bustle with the sounds of mame-loshn.

All roles are open to performers of all ethnicities. Performers with strong vocal skills, dance training and a working acquaintance with Yiddish or a great ear for language are encouraged to audition. Fiddler On The Roof In Yiddish is performed entirely in Yiddish (with English and Russian supertitles).
