Fiddler on the Roof | “To Life“ | Stratford Festival 2013

“To Life“ from the Stratford Festival’s 2013 production of Fiddler on the Roof. Featuring Lee Siegel as Eduard with members of the company. Fiddler on the Roof Based on the stories of Sholem Aleichem Book by Joseph Stein | Music by Jerry Bock | Lyrics by Sheldon Harnick Directed and choreographed by Donna Feore This affectionately humorous portrait of life in a Jewish village in Tsarist Russia centres on Tevye, a milkman-philosopher who finds his values challenged by his daughters’ insistence on following their hearts rather than the dictates of tradition. Meanwhile, more sinister changes are on the horizon -- ones that threaten the community’s very existence.
