Fiddler on the Roof
Glasshouse Theatre, QPAC
After a sold out season in London, breaking the record for the best-selling musical of all time at the Barbican Theatre, and winning three Olivier Awards including Best Musical Revival, Fiddler on the Roof will play in Brisbane from 9 Oct 2026.
From a powerhouse creative team—directed by Jordan Fein (Into The Woods), choreographed by Julia Cheng (Cabaret), and designed by Tom Scutt (Olivier & Tony Award winner)—this is a once in a lifetime opportunity to experience this critically acclaimed production direct from the West End.
It's 1905 in the tiny village of Anatevka. Tevye, a Jewish milkman, lives his life by their proud traditions. For his five daughters, this means a visit from the matchmaker. As each daughter challenges his beliefs, against the backdrop of a changing world, can Tevye hold on to his roots, or must he bend to the will of his children and learn to embrace the unfamiliar?
As one of the greatest musicals of all time featuring, 'If I Were A Rich Man', 'Tradition', 'Matchmaker' and 'Sunrise, Sunset', this classic musical of joy and community is an exuberant celebration of love and life.
Leading the as Tevye is Australian and West end star Troy Sussman, Australian icons Sigrid Thornton as Yente and John Waters as Lazar Wolf, Alexis Fishman as Golde, alongside a phenomenal ensemble of Australian theatre performers.
