MANSFIELD — The Renaissance Theatre will present the Mansfield Symphony’s concert staging of Fiddler on the Roof on Saturday, May 10 at 7:30 p.m. as part of the OhioHealth Symphony Series.

A star-studded cast is set to join forces with Maestro Octavio Más-Arocas and the Mansfield Symphony Orchestra to deliver a sweeping musical experience — featuring the full script and score of this beloved Broadway classic, performed in concert style.

Richland Source’s Leah Gesouras, who is also in this cast as the character Hodel, was joined by Broadway favorite Bruce Sabath (playing the role of Tevye), Lisa Fishman (Golde) and Emmy award-winning comedian and actress Judy Gold (Yente) for a conversation ahead of their performance Saturday night. Watch interview below.

From Bruce’s lifelong journey with the role of Tevye to Lisa’s first-ever English-language production of Fiddler, and Judy’s personal connection to the story’s themes of identity, tradition and resilience — this episode dives deep into why Fiddler still resonates across generations and cultures.

Hear behind-the-scenes anecdotes, why the arts matter more than ever and what makes this concert-style version with the Mansfield Symphony a unique theatrical experience.
