Tevye, a poor Jewish man with five daughters, tries to support his family according to the commandments of religion and tradition in a Christian environment whose influence is growing. He struggles to cope with the desires of his older daughters, who are influenced by modern education, and he is dissatisfied with their choice of husbands. In addition to the difficulties of daily life, the family is confronted by a deportation order requiring all the Jews of the town to leave the homes where they were born and have lived. This famous musical, based on the stories of Sholem Aleichem, is presented in a spectacular production, with fresh and moving direction, accompanied by an orchestra conducted by Yossi Ben-Nun.
