One of the most beloved musicals of all time, Fiddler on the Roof returns to The Encore stage with its timeless tale of family, tradition, and resilience. Set in a tight-knit Jewish village in Tsarist Russia, the story follows Tevye, a humble dairyman, as he tries to preserve his heritage while his daughters forge their own paths. Featuring classic songs like “If I Were a Rich Man,” “Matchmaker,” and “Sunrise, Sunset,” this poignant and joyful musical continues to resonate with audiences across generations. A celebration of culture and change, Fiddler is a must-see cornerstone of musical theatre. This production is generously sponsored by Marci and Stephen Feinberg.
