Voice of the Jewish News: Don’t miss this once-in-a-lifetime l’chaim
Marking Fiddler's 50th anniversary was a no-brainer for this paper, as we brought together the surviving cast members for Life magazine and a special performance at JW3
It is the musical of musicals! The one we’ve known all the words to since we were children. Sunrise, Sunset echoes under every chupah and every party is heralded by the rousing notes of To Life.
It is that very song which will be performed by such esteemed names as Robert Rinder, James Cleverly and Ruth Smeeth, together with the four champion Tevyes – Dudu Fisher, Andy Nyman and Yehezkel Lazarov with a star turn from Chaim Topol in last year’s Chai virtual dinner – which heralds our 50th anniversary celebration of the film Fiddler On The Roof this Sunday.
Marking its 50th anniversary was a no-brainer for this newspaper. The pandemic didn’t stop us from finding the surviving cast members and bringing them together in the Passover edition of Life magazine and again virtually on Sunday for our exclusive reunion in partnership with JW3.
To see the actors who played the characters we know so well and hear
them share their memories of our favourite film is a once-in-a-lifetime moment you won’t forget… and must not miss.

Engaging
Being a community platform means so much more than producing a newspaper and website. One of our proudest roles is media partnering with our invaluable charities to amplify the outstanding work they do to help us all.
Celebrating
There’s no shortage of oys in the world but Jewish News takes every opportunity to celebrate the joys too, through projects like Night of Heroes, 40 Under 40 and other compelling countdowns that make the community kvell with pride.
Pioneering
In the first collaboration between media outlets from different faiths, Jewish News worked with British Muslim TV and Church Times to produce a list of young activists leading the way on interfaith understanding.
Campaigning
Royal Mail issued a stamp honouring Holocaust hero Sir Nicholas Winton after a Jewish News campaign attracted more than 100,000 backers. Jewish Newsalso produces special editions of the paper highlighting pressing issues including mental health and Holocaust remembrance.
Easy access
In an age when news is readily accessible, Jewish News provides high-quality content free online and offline, removing any financial barriers to connecting people.
Voice of our community to wider society
The Jewish News team regularly appears on TV, radio and on the pages of the national press to comment on stories about the Jewish community. Easy access to the paper on the streets of London also means Jewish News provides an invaluable window into the community for the country at large.
We hope you agree all this is worth preserving.
