National Youth Theater presents Fiddler on the Roof

National Youth Theater is excited to announce its upcoming summer production of Fiddler on the Roof. Step into a world of tradition, love, and resilience as we bring you the acclaimed revival of Fiddler on the Roof! Join us for an extraordinary theatrical experience that has captivated audiences across the globe.

Set in Imperial Russia, Fiddler on the Roof tells the poignant story of Tevye, a Jewish milkman in Anatevka, grappling with tradition amidst social upheaval. He debates with God about family, livelihood, and upholding customs in a changing world, symbolized by his refrain, “Tradition!” His five daughters challenge his traditional views on marriage, with Tzeitel marrying for love, Hodel following a radical, and Chava marrying outside their faith. The musical also portrays the broader struggles of the Jewish community under the Tsar’s anti-Semitic regime, facing displacement and persecution. Despite adversity, their resilience and community spirit endure. Fiddler on the Roof explores faith, love, family, and survival in a shifting world.

A diverse cast, aged 14 to 99, will perform on July 25-27 and August 2-3 at the Lone Star College Tomball Performing Arts Center (30555 Tomball Parkway, Tomball). The production will be led by director/choreographer Carla Prescott, assistant directors Holly Jasso and Christine Tonkin, vocal director Shana Manna, assistant vocal director Nikki Gould, and choreographer Abigail Baker.
