Fiddler on the Roof boasts choreography by Hofesh Shechter, based on the original work of Jerome Robbins.The creative team also includes frequent Sher collaborators Michael Yeargan (scenic design), Catherine Zuber (costume design), Donald Holder (lighting design), and Scott Lehrer (sound design).

The production was nominated for 2016 Tonys for Best Musical Revival, Best Choreography, and Best Actor in a Musical, and received Drama Desk Awards for Outstanding Director of a Musical and Outstanding Actor in a Musical for Burstein.
