strong points, boasting some of the classic songs of Broadway.

family trying to deal with changing times and ideas, as a
countries czar is preparing for revolution and moving the Jewish
population out of his country. With all the heavy undertones,

really accents the experience. The Fiddler On The Roof is a
Broadway classic and timeless venue.
