Main TheaterJoin artists from The Metropolitan Opera and Broadway for a special musical adaptation from the Broadway production and movie, "Fiddler On The Roof."
Winner of nine Tony Awards when it debuted in 1964, "Fiddler on the Roof" is the brainchild of Broadway legends, Jerome Robbins and Harold Prince; songwriters, Jerry Bock and Sheldon Harnick; and bookwriter, Joseph Stein. It is based on "Tevye the Dairyman" and other short stories by Sholem Aleichem.
The story centers on Tevye, a milkman in the village of Anatevka who attempts to maintain his Jewish religious and cultural traditions in 1905...and life here is as precarious as a Fiddler on the Roof.
Free and open to the public. Seating is on a first-come, first-served basis and my be limited. For more information call 702.507.3459.

Originally opening in 1966 as a three-room library within the Airport Annex building, the Clark County Library moved in 1967 to a storefront. In 1971, the library moved again to its current location using deeded land from the County and with money awarded by the Max C. Fleishman Foundation. The building went on to have two remodels: one completed in 1986, and the second completed in 1994, which resulted in the three-story, 120,000-square-foot building it is today. This redesign notably included a 399-seat theater and an 80-seat black box theater/dance studio. The Library District also added the Best Buy Teen Tech Center, which provides a place for teens to explore and master new technologies and digital skills.
