ACT (A Contemporary Theatre) of Connecticut has announced the cast for the final production of their 2022-2023 season – THE SECRET GARDEN. The show promises to be the perfect spring musical and will close out the theater's fifth season.

 The Grand will present the Wilmington engagement of the Tony Award®-nominated Broadway revival of Fiddler on the Roof at The Playhouse on Rodney Square from June 9-June 12.  

The Broadway classic is currently in residence at the Hobby Center and is a wonderful expression of both the beauties of our past and a great reminder that history repeats itself.

PNC Broadway in Kansas City will present the beloved theatrical classic FIDDLER ON THE ROOF. This production will take the Music Hall stage May 3–8, 2022.

The Tony Award®-nominated Broadway revival of Fiddler on the Roof returns to the Van Wezel on Tuesday, April 19, through Thursday, April 21, with all three performances starting at 7:30 p.m.

One cannot think about Fiddler on the Roof without the thought of tradition.

Broadway in Omaha's resident matchmaker found the perfect fit for Omaha audiences in the current hit Broadway tour of 'Fiddler on the Roof.' Featuring music by Jerry Bock, lyrics by Sheldon Harnick, and a book by Joseph Stein, 'Fiddler on the Roof' is based on a series of short stories written by Sohlem Aleichem and follows family man Tevye as he navigates his three eldest daughter's search for true love in a time when matchmakers arranged the marriages and marrying for love was unheard of. This story of love, loss, and the most beautiful of traditions has found wild success not only on stage but on the big screen. It first opened on Broadway in 1964 and swept the Tonys with nine awards including one for best musical. It was followed shortly thereafter by a movie adaptation in 1971, which received eight Academy Award nominations. It's a family favorite for many, and it's become a musical standard for most of those in the musical theatre community.

The American Theatre Guild will present the Colorado Springs engagement of FIDDLER ON THE ROOF. This production is part of the BROADWAY IS BACK AT PIKES PEAK CENTER SERIES and takes place February 15-16, 2022.

The American Theatre Guild will present the Eugene engagement of FIDDLER ON THE ROOF coming to the Hult Center February 18–20, 2022. FIDDLER ON THE ROOF is part of the BROADWAY IS BACK IN EUGENE SERIES.

FIDDLER, which runs Dec. 14-19 at the Palace Theatre (34 West Broad Street in downtown Columbus), has everything a good musical should have: a solid plot that sticks with the viewer for months and months, excellent acting and singing, and catchy songs that leave indelible mark in the brain. Its ending, however, is also soul wrenching.

After nearly two years, the Overture Center welcomes back Broadway touring shows. There’s no better show to usher in the new season than FIDDLER ON THE ROOF with its theme of tradition, and it was a roaring success.

CAPA and Broadway in Columbus are proud to present the Columbus engagement of the Tony Award-nominated Broadway revival of Fiddler on the Roof at the Palace Theatre (34 W. Broad St.) December 14-19 as part of the 2021-22 Broadway in Columbus season.

Fiddler has hit the road! Israeli theatre and film star Yehezkel Lazarov leads the non-equity national tour of Fiddler on the Roof. Check out photos of the cast in action below and click here for a complete list of tour stops.

“To us and our good fortune. Be happy, be healthy, long life! And if our good fortune never comes Here’s to whatever comes, Drink l’chaim, to life!” feels very fitting after a long 18-month hiatus due to COVID-19.  Fiddler on the Roof opened at the Times Union Center for the Performing Arts in Jacksonville on November 2. The musical follows the Tevye (Yehezkel Lazarov) and his family in the town of Anatevka. When a radical named Perchick (Solomon Reynolds), Tevye’s family is taken on a journey into the “outside world.” The show truly depicts how times change, but traditions are hard to let go. The cast is supremely talented and witty, as well as entertaining for all audience members.

A beloved theatrical classic from Tony-winner Joseph Stein and Pulitzer Prize winners Jerry Bock and Sheldon Harnick, this critically acclaimed production is directed by Tony Award-winner Bartlett Sher (To Kill a Mockingbird, South Pacific, The King and I) and choreographed by the acclaimed Israeli choreographer Hofesh Shechter. 

The tour of the Tony Award-nominated Broadway revival of Fiddler on the Roof is coming to Overture Center for the Arts on Tuesday, Nov. 16 through Sunday, Nov. 21. Individual tickets go on sale today, Friday, Sept. 17 at 10 a.m. Get your tickets at overture.org or in-person at the ticket office.

Following an 18-month hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Israeli theatre and film star Yehezkel Lazarov, will lead the show’s triumphant return as Tevye in the Fiddler on the Roof North American Tour.  Full casting and upcoming tour dates have also been announced. 

I want to state clearly this a very good production with a large group of talented professionals. Notable performances include Yehezkel Lazarov as Tevye and Ms. Murphy, Froch, and Barenblat as his daughters, Tzeitel, Hodel, and Chava respectively. The choreography originally by Jerome Robbins, recreated by Christopher Evans, with new choreography by Hofesh Schecter is also noteworthy. Overall, however, I felt the production did not quite reach its potential. While this is not a re-imagined Fiddler, there are infusions of some new elements that for me, just didn't work.

In all the times that I have seen FIDDLER ON THE ROOF (and they have been many ~ whether on stage or film), I have never seen a production as inspired, imaginative, and moving in its staging as Bartlett Sher's. The vision of this Tony Award-winning director imbues this musical classic with a singular vitality and soulfulness that distinguishes it from its antecedents. Now appearing at ASU Gammage through February 2nd, the show is a stunning and magical mix of superb performances, Christopher Evans's dazzling and muscular choreography, and Michael Yeargan's vivid and ethereal set designs.
