All performances will be at the Englert Theatre, downtown Iowa City. Where do I park and

Attempting to live a normal life filled with Jewish traditions in early twentieth century Russia,
Tevye , a dairyman, is searching for appropriate husbands for his three eldest daughters -
Chava, Tzeital, and Hodel. In a break of tradition, his daughters refuse to accept the wishes
of the matchmaker, Yente, and their father. Instead, they marry men that they love.
Meanwhile, Russians are instigating terrible pograms against the Jewish people in Russia. In
the end, the Jews of Anatevka are forced to leave their homes and Tevye is determined to
start a better life in a new land.
