With music by Jerry Bock, lyrics by Sheldon Harnick, and book by Joseph Stein, Fiddler on the Roof is set in Tsarist Russia in 1905. Based on "Tevye and his Daughters and Other Tales" by Sholem Aleichem, the story centers 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 both with the strong-willed actions of his three older daughters as 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 classic production is directed by Cait Calvo, with music direction by Joseph Carvalho and choreography by Michael Johnson and Michael Maio.
