“Fiddler on the roof”ARETURN season of this eminently pleasing musical is welcome.Oddly enough the assiduous theatre goer will find a tenable relationship between the social significance portrayed in Fiddler on the roof, at Her Majesty’s Theatre, and Tango.With Don Camillo ruse the star in script and cast, Hayes Gordon, leads a virile company through the throes of political change in a far-off Jewish village of Russia on the eve of the revolution.For the purpose of the musical however, the changes that are highlighted revolve around the social and courtship customs Tevye. a dairyman, has to resolve as his five daughters come to marriageable age.The interplay of traditional behaviour, new ideas and personal justification give rise to an array of disarming yiddish wit and charm — wonderfully enacted by Hayes Gordon and a small select number of the large company.Directed by Fred Herbert Fiddler on the roof gives pleasure and satisfaction. The choreography by Betty Pounder is. this time, highly entertaining. —J.-P.8.
