Fiddler On The Roof JR.
Music
by Jerry Bock
Book by Joseph Stein
Lyrics by Sheldon Harnick
The
story centres on Tevye, the father of five daughters, and his attempts
to maintain his family and Jewish religious traditions while outside
influences encroach upon their lives. He must cope with both the strong-willed
actions of his three older daughters-each one's choice of husband moves
further away from the customs of his faith-and with the edict of the
Tsar that evicts the Jews from their village. This special edition of
one of Broadway's great masterpieces, FIDDLER ON THE ROOF JR. covers
the full range of human emotions, presenting young performers with unique
acting challenges.
