ANATEVKA FIDDLER ON THE ROOF POLISH POSTER

This rare, vintage German poster advertises a stage production of Anatevka which ran from 1980-1981 at the Stadtische Buhnen in Munster, Germany.

Anatevka, the German title of the play Fiddler on the Roof, is the name of the fictional village in Imperial Russia where the story takes place. Those who have seen the play (whatever the language) will recognize the significance of the violin (the fiddle) and the swirling flames around the village that sits at its center.
