    What a delight for the entire family! This is a MUST see!

    by D. C. on 12/27/18Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    The acting, stage, choreography, music, dancing, were all AMAZING! This show did not disappoint. We laughed, we cried, and we are still talking about it. My husband won't stop singing " Do you love me". Once of our favorite shows yet. Coming from a traditional Greek background, we appreciated the many parallels between our own culture and the Jewish culture. Kuddos!

    A really great performance of a true classic musical.

    by FrankyBaby on 12/26/18Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    Even with a cast as strong as this one is, the character of Tevye essentially has to carry the show. The Israeli actor, Yehezkel Lazarov, is more than up to the challenge. His performance is thoroughly captivating, blending pathos and humor with song and dance. The set designs and orchestra are a match for the great story and songs, and the pacing is fairly brisk for a rather lengthy production.

    Tradition Lives On

    by MoMoMimosa on 12/26/18Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    This is one of my favorite musicals and I was not disappointed. The only thing was that the set wasnt as magnificent as i thought a Broadway set should be. The actors were spot on and the singing and dance numbers were phenomenal, even my 3 year old enjoyed.

    A Tradition Still Worth Attendinf

    by GS on 12/26/18Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    Dispense with your notion of Topol in the role and you will appreciate this Tevye for creating his own version. Daughters have great voices and dream scene is classic. The bottles remain on the hats as they should during wedding dance. But someone must have borrowed Yente from a local high school production of Fiddler because otherwise it would be hard to explain how a Broadway quality star could mangle the role so badly. Right? Of Course Right! All in all it was a delight.

    Very long play and slow moving.

    by JaneC on 12/23/18Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    Very slow moving and even kind of depressing- not what we were expecting - especially during the holidays.

    Phenomenal!!!

    by Fairmaiden9129 on 12/22/18Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    This was such a treat. I loved the singing and the dancing. The actor that played Tevye, was the best. I liked his interpretation of the character. Fiddler is one of my favorite musicals, so rich in, "Tradition."

    Great show!

    by Lola on 12/22/18Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    Loved it! The music and dancing were phenomenal! Loved the fiddler! Most of the performances I was smiling ear to ear! The main character nails it! The second half is a little sad but ends on a good note. I would love to go back!

    Well produced. OK set. Accents all-over the place.

    by D. L. on 12/21/18Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    Well produced, acted and sung. Problems with the accents all over the place. Some sounded Russian, some Hispanic, none Yiddish. Set design was OK. Fiddler was never on a roof as in other productions, just prancing around the stage. ??? Missed Topol for sure, nobody compares. Some dead spots in the production could have been eliminated. Oh...excellent dancing scenes. Good fun.

    Pretty good play and the balcony seats are OK

    by PolishPaul on 12/15/11Auditorium Theatre - Chicago

    The play itself was pretty good as was the theather. Due to being a bit late - ;-) - for the first half I sat on the upper balcony but in the second row. Those seats are actually not too bad, might be bit tight if your over 6', although I wouldn't go for the seats on the upper most balcony, especially in the last rows. In the second half I joined my girlfriend and sat in the dress circle on the main floor. Those seats are of course better & closer to the stage but if you're on a budget get the balcony ones, with some discount code or on hottix.org if possible, you still get to see and enjoy the play. And majority of girls will really like that kind of outing, nice place and play for a date. Just DON'T be late and you will score some good "brownie points" ;-) I did!
