Behind the Scenes - What Happened After Anatevka?

For a very special opening night, Olney Theatre Center welcomes author Alisa Solomon, whose seminal book Wonder of Wonders: A Cultural History of Fiddler on the Roof changed the way Americans think about the history and legacy of Tevye’s story. Alisa is joined in a conversation about Fiddler’s legacy with Rabbi Sarah Bassin, the Director of Clergy and Congregations at HIAS, which draws on Jewish values and history to provide vital services to refugees and asylum seekers throughout the world. Artistic Director Jason Loewith moderates this conversation about what Fiddler continues to mean for 21st century America.
