One of the most electrifying theatrical events of the last decade is finally coming to Canada. The internationally celebrated revival of Fiddler on the Roof in Yiddish with English subtitles arrives at Toronto’s historic Elgin Theatre from May 25 to June 7, 2026. Presented by the Harold Green Jewish Theatre Company (HGJTC), this landmark production is directed by the legendary Tony and Academy Award winner, Joel Grey.
Tony Award nominee and original Yiddish Tevye, Steven Skybell, is reprising his celebrated role alongside an all-Canadian supporting cast. Performed entirely in its original language with English and Russian subtitles, this landmark production has been described as a “revelation” for returning one of Broadway’s most beloved musicals back to its cultural roots in a powerfully authentic theatrical event.
“There is something profoundly moving about hearing Fiddler in Yiddish,” said Joel Grey. “The language carries history, humour, sorrow and resilience all at once. Like hearing opera in its original tongue, it deepens every moment. It allows the story to breathe with emotional truth.”
What began as a planned six-week engagement in New York in 2018 turned into an unprecedented 18-month sensation, earning a Drama Desk Award for Best Revival of a Musical and has been performed more than 500 times. Hailed by The New York Times and Los Angeles Times, the production has earned widespread acclaim and continues to resonate with audiences across generations, faiths and backgrounds.
Set in the Russian shtetl of Anatevka, Fiddler on the Roof in Yiddish follows Tevye, a humble milkman navigating love, faith, and family as tradition collides with a rapidly changing world. While rooted in Jewish history, its themes of displacement, identity, and generational change feel strikingly contemporary and reflect universal human experiences that transcend cultural boundaries.
“This production has an uncanny ability to bring people together,” said Avery Saltzman, co-artistic director of Harold Green Jewish Theatre Company. “Audiences who do not speak Yiddish still feel every beat. The storytelling transcends language. It is visceral, funny, heartbreaking and deeply human.”
In an increasingly fragmented world, this story stands as a powerful unifying force—cultivating empathy, deepening cultural understanding, and giving voice to the wisdom passed from parent to child amid constant change. At a time when dialogue surrounding belonging, migration and cultural memory have never been more vital, the timeless, universal story of Fiddler on the Roof in Yiddish resonates with extraordinary power.
With Joel Grey at the helm, the creative team behind the much-anticipated Toronto production includes associate director Merete Muenter; associate director, production staging and choreographer Staś Kmieć; associate director and supertitle designer Matthew ‘Motl’ Didner; music supervisor Zalmen Mlotek; and music director Mark Camilleri. Scenic design is by Beowulf Boritt; costume design by Ann Hould-Ward; lighting design by Peter Kaczorowski andEthan Steimel; sound design by Dan Moses Schreier; and hair and wig design by Tom Watson. Casting is by Dayton/Walters Casting, CSA, CDC with Jamibeth Margolis, CSA consulting. The production manager is Ray Salverda.
The Toronto production includes an exceptionally talented cast featuring Steven Skybell; Joey Arrigo; Nick Boegel; Emma Burke-Kleinman; Eric Dahlinger; Jesse Drwiega; Jamie Elman; Gabi Epstein; Michelle Heisler; Isadora Kecman;Joshua Kilimnik; Jeremy Lapalme; Connor J.

Exploring the undeniable chemistry, whirlwind courtship and high-profile marriage of one of the most iconic couples of the 20th century, FX’s “Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn Bessette” is set to premiere on Thursday, February 12, 2026 with an FX/Disney+ three-episode simulcast at 9 p.m. ET on Hulu on Disney+ in Canada. Following the premiere, one new episode of the nine-episode series will air weekly.

The first installment in Ryan Murphy’s “Love Story” anthology, FX’s “Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn Bessette” is a limited series inspired by Elizabeth Beller’s book Once Upon a Time: The Captivating Life of Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy.
It was a love story that captured the attention of the nation: John F. Kennedy Jr. (Paul Anthony Kelly) was the closest thing to American royalty. The country watched him grow from a boy to a beloved bachelor and media sensation. Carolyn Bessette (Sarah Pidgeon) was a star in her own right. Fiercely independent and with a singular style, she rose from being a sales assistant to an executive at Calvin Klein, and became a trusted confidante of its eponymous founder. John and Carolyn’s connection was immediate, electric and undeniable. As their love story unfolded on a national stage, the intense fame and media attention that came along with it threatened to rip them apart. Featuring Grace Gummer (Caroline Kennedy), Naomi Watts (Jackie Kennedy Onassis), Alessandro Nivola (Calvin Klein), Leila George (Kelly Klein), Sydney Lemmon (Lauren Bessette) and Constance Zimmer (Ann Marie Messina), “Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn Bessette” charts the complex and heartbreaking journey of a couple whose private love became a national obsession.
FX’s “Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn Bessette” is created by Connor Hines and executive produced by Ryan Murphy, Nina Jacobson, Brad Simpson, Connor Hines, Eric Kovtun, Nissa Diederich, Scott Robertson, Monica Levinson, Kim Rosenstock, D.V. DeVincentis and Tanase Popa. Max Winkler executive produced and directed the pilot episode. It is produced by 20th Television.
Robust parental controls ensure that Disney+ remains a suitable viewing experience for everyone in the family. Subscribers can set access limits on mature content and create PIN-protected profiles alongside the already existing Junior Mode profiles to give parents and guardians peace of mind.
