Fiddler on the Roof takes the stage as Summer Musical Enterprise (SME) proudly presents this timeless Broadway masterpiece. Winner of nine Tony Awards, this beloved musical blends humor, heart, and history as it follows Tevye, a poor milkman in the village of Anatevka, who fights to uphold tradition while the world around him shifts.

With unforgettable songs like If I Were a Rich Man, Matchmaker, and Sunrise, Sunset; a vibrant ensemble; and storytelling that spans generations, Fiddler on the Roof stands as one of musical theatre's most long-standing classics. Join the SME community for a celebration of family, resilience, and the traditions that shape us.

Produced on the New York stage by Harold Prince
