Fiddler on the Roof tells the story of Tevye, a Jewish milkman in 1905 Russia, who struggles to maintain his Jewish traditions as his three oldest daughters challenge the custom of arranged marriages by falling in love with men of their own choosing. Amidst generational and cultural conflict, his family and their community face escalating anti-Semitic pressure that ultimately forces them to leave their village and the only home they have ever known.
