You'll recognise the protagonist from "For your eyes only".

It's not a normal musical. It's one that made it big when the genre was dying.

I would second Мастер's opinion - you should definitely see it. It comes round from time to time and I see is available on Amazon Prime and probably also Netflix.

That's right. Muppet's Chrisrmas Carol is as far down that dark path I'm prepared to go.

Never seen.
I understand there are some non-musical versions of 'Fiddler' or the stories it is based on that I might check out.

On a bit of an adjacent tangent, just came across this article (full disclosure, haven't seen this one either):
‘Schindler’s List’: An Oral History of a Masterpiece
