Tevye basically states this in the first scene "we are all like... a Fiddler on the ROOF!" as the first song Tradition (which is another very heavily used theme in the show) The fiddler and his shakiness, almost falling over, as Tevye also states in his opening "speech" represents the breaking with tradition that Tevye and his family do throughout the show.
