Yente. Everybody’s favorite matchmaker. With the iconic character being played by Alix Korey in the Broadway revival, alongside an top-notch cast that are always willing to create new content for the show, we set to work on bringing Fiddler on the Roof into, of all places, the online dating world (well, at least in a parody commercial). Introducing “Yente!” the brand new matchmaking app that pre-arranges your marriage so you don’t have to. Filmed in two days across several shoot locations in New York City with a cast of five, here’s Yente!
The original production won ten Tony Awards, including a special Tony for becoming the longest-running Broadway musical of all time—and now you can be there when the sun rises on this new production, starring Tony nominees Danny Burstein and Jessica Hecht with stunning movement and dance from acclaimed Israeli choreographer Hofesh Shechter, based on the original staging by Jerome Robbins. A wonderful cast and a lavish orchestra tell this heartwarming story of fathers and daughters, husbands and wives, and the timeless traditions that define faith and family.
Featuring the Broadway classics “To Life,” “If I Were a Rich Man,” “Sunrise, Sunset,” “Matchmaker, Matchmaker” and “Tradition,” Fiddler on the Roof will introduce a new generation to this uplifting celebration that raises its cup to joy! To love! To life!
