HCPAC PRESENTS

Henderson County Performing Arts Center continues its 2025 Season with the Oscar-winning adaptation of the Broadway musical Fiddler on the Roof about life among the Jewish community of a pre-revolutionary Russian village.

In 1905, Tevye, a Jewish milkman in the Russian village of Anatevka, introduced the importance of tradition in their precarious lives. When the matchmaker suggests a wealthy butcher, Lazar Wolf, as a husband for Tevye's eldest daughter, Tzeitel, Tevye agrees, but Tzeitel secretly loves Motel, a poor tailor. Tevye ultimately supports their union after concocting a dream to convince his wife, Golde. Meanwhile, Tevye's second daughter, Hodel, falls in love with Perchik, a radical student, and leaves to join him after he's imprisoned. Tevye's third daughter, Chava, marries a non-Jewish villager against Tevye's wishes and is disowned. Soon after, the Jewish villagers are forced to leave Anatevka due to Russian persecution. As they depart, the fiddler plays, symbolizing their resilience. With iconic songs like “Sunrise, Sunset,” “If I Were a Rich Man,” and “Matchmaker, Matchmaker,” this production explores themes of love, tradition, and change. 

Fiddler on the Roof is sponsored by PJ Ericson. Auditions for this incredible production are Monday, Feb. 10 and Tuesday, Feb. 11 at 6 pm to 8 pm.
