Chattanooga, TN (March 10, 2016) --- Fiddler on the Roof, the classic musical that opened on Broadway in 1964 now comes to the Chattanooga State Community College Humanities Theatre on April 8-9-10.

The story revolves around the character of “Tevye,” played by WRCB-TV Channel 3’s very own Greg Glover, as the father of five daughters set in the Pale of Settlement of Imperial Russia in 1905. “Tevye” attempts to maintain his Jewish religious and cultural traditions as outside influences affect the family’s lives. The show features Chattanooga State students, faculty, and staff, as well as a youth ensemble from the Signal Mountain Playhouse.

Fiddler on the Roof features the music of Jerry Bock, lyrics by Sheldon Harnick, and book by Joseph Stein. Chattanooga State’s production team includes stage and musical direction by Dr. Jennifer Arbogast, choreography by Lindsay Fussell; stage management by Bridgett Bryant; and orchestra conducted by Sandy Morris.
