Broadway Across Canada's new season includes a new production of a legendary hit, the musical adaptation of the movie that made Julia Roberts a superstar, a Disney musical featuring a wisecracking genie and finally a jukebox musical that features the music of one of the greatest R&B groups of all time.
Fiddler on the Roof opens Broadway Across Canada's 2023 season January 10. Directed by Tony-winning Bartlett Sher, it's a new production of the masterpiece that produced songs such as "If I Were a Rich Man," "Matchmaker, Matchmaker" and "Sunrise, Sunset."

The season closes with Ain't Too Proud to Beg: The Life and Times of the Temptations, which runs Sept. 26-Oct 1, 2023, and tells the story of the Temptations' journey from the streets of Detroit to being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of fame.
