Tagline
This is the story of one woman's struggle to survive in New York City, as well as an epic of the immigrant experience. The music is rich and varied ranging from operatic aria to ragtime. It was composed by Charles Strouse (Bye Bye Birdie) and the lyrics are by Children of Eden composer, Stephen Schqartz. The book is by Joseph Stein (Fiddler on the Roof).
