The world-famous musical Fiddler on the Roof is about the life of a Jewish family, directed by external constraints and inner desires, in a turbulent historical time, but most of all about the changing world and values that are eternal, about the meaning of humanity, family, faith, community, and solidarity.

Starting with the Main Hall performance scheduled for May 30, the character of Motel Kamzoil will be performed by Tamás Kiss, while the role of Bjelke will be portrayed by Eszter Román. The actors portraying the Jewish community will include also Zsolt Gedő and guest artist Edina Fodor. Directed by László Béres, the production will take place on June 2, 11, and 18, in the theatre’s Main Hall, at 7 pm.
