Best Answer

Fiddler on the Roof is about the changing of traditions in a small Jewish village in Russia. Tevye, a poor dairyman, and his wife, Golde, struggle to raise their five daughters. The three older daughters are all hoping for the village matchmaker to bring them husbands. Tzeital (oldest) is already in love with the tailor. Hodel (second oldest) falls in love with Perchik, a newcomer to the village. And Chava (third oldest) falls in love with Fyedka, a Russian soldier. By the end of the show, the village residents are being kicked out of their village by Russian soldiers, Tzeital and Motel are married, Hodel moved to Siberia to join Perchik who was arrested, and Chava is disowned for marrying Fyedka.
