If you’re looking for one of the most celebrated musicals of all time, we’ve got your match. Tevye, a milkman, lives with his wife Golde and their five daughters. He wants what most parents want for their children: a better life. One after the other, Tevye’s daughters stray from expectations and begin risking their livelihoods with less-than-ideal husbands, doing that pesky thing people do called following their hearts. Winner of nine Tony Awards including Best Musical, Fiddler on the Roof features timeless songs like “Matchmaker” and “If I Were a Rich Man,” and a universal story of family, love, and tradition.
