It is based on Tevye and his Daughters (or Tevye the Milkman and Other Tales) by Sholem Aleichem. The story centers on Tevye, the father of five daughters, and his attempts to maintain his family and Jewish religious traditions while outside influences encroach upon their lives. He must cope with both the strong-willed actions of his three older daughters—each one's choice of husband moves further away from the customs of his faith—and with the edict of the Tsar that evicts the Jews from their village.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe original Broadway production of the show, which opened in 1964, was the first run of a musical in history to surpass the 3,000 performance mark. Fiddler held the record for the longest-running Broadway musical for almost 10 years until Grease surpassed its run. It remains Broadway's fourteenth longest-running show in history. The production was extraordinarily profitable and highly acclaimed. It was nominated for ten Tony Awards, winning nine, including Best Musical, score, book, direction and choreography. It spawned four Broadway revivals, a successful 1971 film adaptation, and the show has enjoyed enduring international popularity. It is also a very popular choice for school and community productions.\u003c/p\u003e","musicPath":"/music/Fiddler+On+The+Roof+Original+Broadway+Cast+","playStationPath":"/stations/271970913/play","stationId":271970913,"bioPath":"/music/Fiddler+On+The+Roof+Original+Broadway+Cast+/_full_bio","similars":[{"musicPath":"/music/Annie+Get+Your+Gun+Broadway+Cast+","artistDefaultImage":"//olds1.cdn107.com/images/defartist_md.png","artistName":"Annie Get Your Gun (Broadway Cast)","artistId":117753,"station_id":283946213},{"musicPath":"/music/How+To+Succeed+In+Business+Without+Really+Trying+Original+Broadway+Cast+","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/fc8/fc8e32bce295da91e61c43b417af3b90_md.jpg","artistName":"How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying (Original Broadway Cast)","artistId":113864,"station_id":283945507},{"musicPath":"/music/Sweet+Charity+Original+Broadway+Cast+","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/b26/b268426a4595af7d65151ecde9ff62b4_md.jpg","artistName":"Sweet Charity (Original Broadway Cast)","artistId":89599,"station_id":271970931},{"musicPath":"/music/Spamalot+Original+Broadway+Cast+Recording+","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/50a/50aaa4b1b77c817f22317eccd60a3746_md.jpg","artistName":"Spamalot (Original Broadway Cast Recording)","artistId":108934,"station_id":283944729},{"musicPath":"/music/Company+Original+Broadway+Cast+","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/2b7/2b7297ae301501e5d6ec45c9a84b40cb_md.jpg","artistName":"Company (Original Broadway Cast)","artistId":107692,"station_id":281656728},{"musicPath":"/music/Joseph+And+The+Amazing+Technicolor+Dreamcoat+Original+Broadway+Cast+","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/188/18804e4eb9cc9fc65a62f180a8daae83_md.jpg","artistName":"Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (Original Broadway Cast)","artistId":89590,"station_id":271970920},{"musicPath":"/music/Gypsy+Original+Broadway+Cast+","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/11c/11cb158a759fd382a0f6e49b22fb75e5_md.jpg","artistName":"Gypsy (Original Broadway Cast)","artistId":117877,"station_id":283168735},{"musicPath":"/music/Mack+David+Al+Hoffman+Jerry+Livingston+Children+s+","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/93f/93fde99b35559a6fd52cafbc4ae589c9_md.jpg","artistName":"Mack David, Al Hoffman, \u0026 Jerry Livingston (Children's)","artistId":110065,"station_id":283944921},{"musicPath":"/music/Dean+Martin+Frank+Sinatra+Sammy+Davis+Jr+","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/d8b/d8b8e050ae9fddfc4f6f0af794a3d740_md.jpg","artistName":"Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra \u0026 Sammy Davis, Jr.","artistId":75350,"station_id":266440870},{"musicPath":"/music/Carousel+1994+Broadway+Cast+","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/692/6925cd682757211efb5744a394ff0d14_md.jpg","artistName":"Carousel (1994 Broadway Cast)","artistId":95815,"station_id":280881348},{"musicPath":"/music/Into+The+Woods+2002+Broadway+Cast+","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/df7/df7ab42a2280f186573417b37f756f4c_md.jpg","artistName":"Into The Woods (2002 Broadway Cast)","artistId":112105,"station_id":283945254},{"musicPath":"/music/Cats+Original+Broadway+Cast+","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/0e1/0e1a2e784d5d7bf846b86eca6637e3d1_md.jpg","artistName":"Cats (Original Broadway Cast)","artistId":89582,"station_id":271970909},{"musicPath":"/music/A+Funny+Thing+Happened+on+the+Way+to+the+Forum+Original+Broadway+Cast+","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/ec6/ec6447466e01e6be29a6c5e3866e0b7d_md.jpg","artistName":"A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum (Original Broadway Cast)","artistId":115107,"station_id":283945679},{"musicPath":"/music/Thoroughly+Modern+Millie+Original+Broadway+Cast+","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/35d/35d234385a5528bfa4e8a362763faf49_md.jpg","artistName":"Thoroughly Modern Millie (Original Broadway Cast)","artistId":108211,"station_id":282140223},{"musicPath":"/music/Hairspray+Original+Broadway+Cast+","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/390/39044fc0b9ef56ad079251d5085bb673_md.jpg","artistName":"Hairspray (Original Broadway Cast)","artistId":107369,"station_id":281656681},{"musicPath":"/music/Gigi+Original+Broadway+Cast+","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/8f1/8f17e86a87eca9f3d105e955e2ebd1a3_md.jpg","artistName":"Gigi (Original Broadway Cast)","artistId":117488,"station_id":283946125},{"musicPath":"/music/Zero+Mostel","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/864/864b53790925e653b62c52b004cb19de_md.jpg","artistName":"Zero Mostel","artistId":89602,"station_id":271970935},{"musicPath":"/music/Brigadoon+Original+Broadway+Cast+","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/fb8/fb8a36129fcfb4d4a29e54ad38184ca3_md.jpg","artistName":"Brigadoon (Original Broadway Cast)","artistId":117751,"station_id":283946211}]}
