The seemingly simple story of Tevye, a milkman, and his family has been captivating audiences since 1964 when "Fiddler on the Roof" first debuted on Broadway and won a sensational 9 Tony Awards. This classic musical, set in early 1900s Russia, follows Tevye as he navigates the challenges of being a father to his daughters while the world around him becomes increasingly modern right before his eyes. With the help of his community and family, Tevye learns through a series of challenges that love, faith and tradition are closely intertwined. As we still see today, in some cases love must prevail over tradition and in others our love for tradition and faith is what keeps our community alive.

The UWF Theatre Department is proud to welcome back Topher Warren, UWF Alum in the role of Tevye.

Directed by Sara Schoch

Music Directed by Tina Buran

Choreography by Brenda Jean Hamilton

In celebration of Black History Month, the UWF Office of Campus Culture and Access and the Gulf Islands National Seashore are pleased to bring you a Campus Conversation on Pensacola and the Hidden Histories of Black Liberation.

The Underground Railroad in Pensacola is one of the best-kept secrets in United States history. In the mid-1800s, enslaved people seized their freedom by following routes southward to Pensacola and beyond. During the Civil War, the U.S. military presence in West Florida motivated even more enslaved people to pursue freedom. Some joined the U.S. Colored Troops (USCT), playing an important but often overlooked role in the fight in the American Civil War. This Campus Conversation, brought to you by the UWF Office of Campus Culture and Access (OCCA) and the Gulf Islands National Seashore, and in honor of Black History Month, preserves and shares these histories, offering opportunities for reflection on the ongoing struggle for human dignity. We invite you to join us as we bring into alignment the missions of the National Park Service and OCCA by fostering reflective dialogue, creating transformational and educational experiences, and preserving the narratives of those who shaped American history.

This event is funded, in part, by Pace Symposiums and is free and open to the public.
