FIDDLER ON THE ROOF: Wonder of Wonders: How FIDDLER Came to Be

  • Mayerson JCC 8485 Ridge Avenue Cincinnati, OH, 45236 United States (map)

In a special two-part evening, join preeminent Fiddler on the Roof scholar and author Alisa Solomon (Wonder of Wonders: A Cultural History of Fiddler on the Roof, Metropolitan Books) and Broadway scholar Ben Whiteley as they trace the origins, creation, and worldwide success of one of the most beloved musicals ever written. With rare video footage of the creative process and live musical performances, Solomon and Whiteley will share behind-the-scenes stories alongside excerpts from Fiddler’s beloved score. Whiteley will also offer a fascinating glimpse into “the songs that got away”—selections originally written for the show that were cut prior to its Broadway opening.

Admission is free, though seating is limited and reservations are required.
A $2.50 per-ticket processing fee will be assessed for all orders.
