The theatrical triumph that is Fiddler on the Roof has landed at London’s Barbican Centre and our sold out audiences are raving about the electrifying production now playing for a strictly limited season until 19 July.

This is a rare opportunity to catch this critically acclaimed production and winner of BEST MUSICAL REVIVAL at this year’s Olivier Awards from the powerhouse creative team directed by Jordan Fein (Oklahoma, Young Vic), choreographed by Julia Cheng (Cabaret), and designed by Tom Scutt (Winner of the Tony Award for Cabaret).

Reprising their Olivier-nominated starring roles are Adam Dannheisser who plays Tevye, Lara Pulver as Golde, and Beverley Klein who plays Yente.

It’s 1905 in the tiny village of Anatevka Tevye, a Jewish milkman, lives his life by their proud traditions. For his five daughters, that means a visit from the matchmaker.  As each daughter challenges his beliefs, against the backdrop of a changing world, can Tevye hold on to his roots, or must he bend to the will of his children and learn to embrace the unfamiliar?

What is one of the greatest musicals of all time featuring, ‘If I Were A Rich Man’, ‘Tradition’, ‘Matchmaker’ and ‘Sunrise, Sunset’, this classic musical of joy and community is an exuberant celebration of love and life.

Producers said: “We are delighted to bring together a first class cast for this landmark production of Fiddler on the Roof. With Olivier nominees and a host of remarkable new talent, this ensemble embodies the heart, soul, and spirit of this timeless story. Barbican audiences are in for something truly special this summer.”

This electrifying masterpiece is the next in the series of great summer musicals at the Barbican, as part of the partnership between Trafalgar Theatre Productions and the Barbican. This follows the previous smash-hit summer classic musical extravaganzas Anything Goes, Kiss Me, Kate and the multi-award-winning new musical A Strange Loop.
