Where to Watch Fiddler on the Roof
- Krista GloverFebruary 21, 2026I hate musicals but Fiddler on the roof is the exception. The highlight for me is the actor Topol who plays Tevye, he was made for the role. As such I wasn't surprised to find out that he played the role on stage over 3500 times throughout his life. He has an incredible presence on screen. I wish I could of seen him perform live on stage!
