Program Description

Event Details

How did three impoverished immigrant brothers in Syracuse NY rise to become the most powerful men in the American commercial theater? And how did their theaters survive the departure of the Shubert's family's decendants? Theater historian John Kenrick offers a fascinating look at how Sam, Lee, and Jacob Shubert built and sustained a theatrical organization that remains a major player in show business today.
