Neva is interviewed in this new documentary, Fiddler: Miracle of Miracles. As Lin-Manuel Miranda, who performed “To Life To Life L’Chaim” at his own wedding, says in the trailer, “Fiddler captures those big moments in our lives — moments of transition; moments of tradition breaking; tradition renewing.” It hits theaters August 23.
Neva is best known for her portrayal of Chava, Tevye’s third daughter, in the classic movie musical Fiddler on the Roof, now celebrating its 50th anniversary with the release of the brilliant new documentary, Fiddler’s Journey to the Big Screen. Neva, who has distinguished herself as a singer and actress in theaters On- and Off-Broadway, on film and television, and in concert halls and cabarets worldwide, is visiting communities across America and Canada to host both movies and to perform her solo companion piece, Becoming Chava.
