*A musical theatre tradition, Tevye the milkman tries to protect his
daughters and his way of life from a changing world.*

Winner of 9 TONY Awards when it debuted in 1964, *Fiddler on the Roof* is
the brainchild of Broadway legends Jerome Robbins, Harold Prince,
songwriters Jerry Bock and Sheldon Harnick, and book writer Joseph Stein.
Touching audiences worldwide with its humor, warmth and honesty, this
universal show is a staple of the musical theatre canon.

Set in the little village of Anatevka, the story centers on Tevye, a poor
dairyman, and his five daughters. With the help of a colorful and
tight-knit Jewish community, Tevye tries to protect his daughters and
instill them with traditional values in the face of changing social mores
and the growing antisemitism of Czarist Russia. Rich in historical and
ethnic detail, *Fiddler on the Roof**'s* universal theme of adapting to
change cuts across barriers of race, class, nationality and religion,
leaving audiences crying tears of laughter, joy and sadness.

*The Brothers Grimm hit the stage with an epic fairy tale about wishes,
family and the choices we make.*

James Lapine and Stephen Sondheim take everyone's favorite storybook
characters and bring them together for a timeless yet relevant piece and
rare modern classic. The TONY Award-winning book and score are both
enchanting and touching.

The story follows a Baker and his wife who wish to have a child, Cinderella
who wishes to attend the King's Festival, and Jack who wishes his cow would
give milk. When the Baker and his wife learn that they cannot have a child
because of a Witch's curse, the two set off on a journey to break the
curse. Everyone's wish is granted, but the consequences of their actions
return to haunt them later with disastrous results.
