Before there was Fiddler on the Roof (which premiered on Broadway in 1964 and won the Tony Award for Best Musical in 1965), there was Tevye and His Daughters. Written in Yiddish by Sholem Aleichem, and first published in 1894, the collection of short stories inspired the creation of Fiddler on the Roof. Our cast has enjoyed hearing excerpts from these stories these last few weeks in rehearsal.
