LAKEPORT – The Lake County Repertory Theater and Lakeport Community Players will present their production of “Fiddler on the Roof” beginning Friday, Oct. 5, and running for eight shows.


Based on the Sholom Aleichem stories by Joseph Stein, with music by Jerry Bock and lyrics by Sheldon Harnick, “Fiddler on the Roof” tells the story of Tevye the milkman and his five daughters, living in 1905 Russia.


Tevye is caught between the pull of tradition and his strong-willed daughters. At the same time, he and his Jewish neighbors in the village of Anatevka face being forced out of their homes by the Russians.


Performances will take place at the Little Theater at the Lake County Fairgrounds, 401 Martin St. Lakeport.
