Fiddler on the Roof
Synopsis
Fiddler on the Roof is set in the small Jewish village of Anatevka, Russia, in 1905 and is concerned primarily with the efforts of Tevye, a dairyman, his wife, Golde and their five daughters to cope with their hard existence under Tsarist rule.
During the Prologue ("Tradition"), Tevye explains the role of God's law in providing balance in the villagers' lives. He describes the inner circle of the community and the larger circle which includes the constable, the priest, and countless other authority figures. He explains, "We don't bother them and so far, they don't bother us". He ends by insisting that without their traditions, he and the other villages would find their lives ""as shaky as a fiddler on the roof"
Performance Season
Fiddler on the Roof was performed at the Banyule Theatre in Heidelberg over 2 weeks in July of 2002.
