FIDDLER ON THE ROOF Extends at Regent's Park Open Air Theatre

Due to popular demand, Regent's Park Open Air Theatre has announced a one week extension for the critically acclaimed new production of Fiddler on the Roof with book by Joseph Stein, music by Jerry Bock and lyrics by Sheldon Harnick, and directed by Jordan Fein.
Review Roundup: What Did The Critics Think of FIDDLER ON THE ROOF?

Jordan Fein's new production of Fiddler on the Roof is now open at Regent's Park Open Air Theatre.
Review: FIDDLER ON THE ROOF, Regent's Park Open Air Theatre

The production embraces Jewish representation and celebrates their religious rituals with refreshing openness. From Tevye’s personal relationship with God to the customs of his culture, there’s pride in Fein’s take. He imbues it with tradition, lifting the narrative to a universal story of love and sacrifice; the outdated strands of ideas end up cementing an emotive snapshot of a past that’s ruthlessly and constantly repeating somewhere. Charming, heart-rending, and utterly gorgeous, this is the revival of Fiddler.
