Fiddler on the Roof Heads to Liverpool Empire for One Week Only

The Olivier Award-winning production of Fiddler on the Roof is set to dazzle Liverpool audiences when it arrives at the Liverpool Empire Theatre for a strictly limited run from 23 to 27 September.

Hailed as “revelatory – a must see” by The Standard and “a simply glorious revival” by The Times, this acclaimed production completely sold out its West End run at the Barbican. Now, the critically celebrated show embarks on a UK and Ireland tour, giving Liverpool the rare chance to experience its magic direct from the West End.

Directed by Jordan Fein (Oklahoma!, Young Vic), choreographed by Julia Cheng (Cabaret), and designed by Tom Scutt—who won the 2025 Olivier Award for Fiddler on the Roof—the creative team brings fresh energy to one of the greatest musicals of all time.

Set in 1905 in the small Russian village of Anatevka, the story follows Tevye, a Jewish milkman navigating tradition, family, and change as his daughters challenge the customs he holds dear. Against a backdrop of upheaval, Fiddler on the Roof explores love, resilience, and community through some of musical theatre’s most beloved songs, including If I Were a Rich Man, Tradition, Matchmaker, and Sunrise, Sunset.

With three Olivier Awards to its name, including Best Musical Revival, the production promises an unforgettable night at the theatre.

Tickets are expected to sell fast – book early to avoid disappointment.
