About the Show
Fiddler on the Roof premiered on Broadway in 1964 with music by Jerry Bock, lyrics by Sheldon Harnick, and a book by Joseph Stein. It was a groundbreaking hit, winning nine Tony Awards including Best Musical. It has since been revived many times on Broadway, in the West End, and across the globe. The 1971 film adaptation also brought the story to millions of viewers worldwide.
The musical explores themes of tradition, family, faith, and survival, set against a backdrop of social upheaval. Its combination of humour, warmth, and drama has made it one of the most enduring titles in theatre history. The current UK tour continues to share the emotional depth and cultural richness of the piece with new audiences.
