Fiddler on the Roof Jr.
Set in the little village of Anatevka, the story centers on Tevye, a poor dairyman, and his five daughters. With the help of a colorful and tight-knit Jewish community, Tevye tries to marry off his daughters and instill in them a sense of tradition in the face of growing anti-Semitism in Czarist Russia.
Adapted from the nine-time Tony Award-winning Broadway musical, Fiddler on the Roof JR. brings timeless themes of family, faith, and tradition to life. Created by Broadway legends Jerome Robbins, Harold Prince, Jerry Bock, Sheldon Harnick, and Joseph Stein, the show features beloved songs including “Tradition,” “If I Were a Rich Man,” “Matchmaker,” and more.
A powerful and heartwarming tale for all ages, Fiddler on the Roof JR. reminds us that even as the world changes, some values remain eternal.

Donna Thompson, a Marshfield native and former UW–Marshfield/Wood County student, has been involved with this theatre program since its inception—first as music director, then as director. A longtime employee of Marshfield Clinic Health System, she has deep roots in the community, including serving on the boardof directors for the Central Chamber Chorale. Over the past 20 years, theatre has become her passion. Sharing that passion with young people during the summer theatre camp—and with likeminded adults in the winter productions—is deeply fulfilling for her.
