In the play Fiddler on the Roof what does the Fiddler on the Roof represent?
Tradition! The first line in the play as spoken by Tevye: "A Fiddler on the roof! Sounds crazy, no? But every one of us is a Fiddler on the Roof, trying to scratch out a meager tune, without breaking his neck. It isn't easy." Imagine someone playing a fiddle while at the same time maintaining his balance, standing precariously on a roof. The fiddler on the roof represent the Jewish people desperately trying to mantain their identity and patrimony. this becomes increasingly more difficult as the new generations reject traditions that define them; Motle asking to marry Tzitle after Tevye pledges her to the Butcher, Hodel marrying the poor student Perchik and moving to Siberia, and Chava marrying Fyedka, a Christian.
