From the powerhouse creative team, Jordan Fein (Oklahoma, Young Vic), Julia Cheng (Cabaret) and Tom Scutt (Winner of the 2024 Tony Award for Cabaret), Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre’s sold-out, electrifying Fiddler On The Roof transfers to the Barbican this summer for a strictly limited 8-week season, followed by a major UK and Ireland tour.

It’s 1905 in the tiny village of Anatevka where 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?
