(Syracuse, NY – March 2013) On Saturday March 9 at 12:30 pm the Onondaga Historical Association will present The Shubert Brothers at the Century Club.
Gregg Tripoli, OHA’s Executive Director, will present on the Shubert brothers at the Century Club for the English Speaking Union. This is a true rags to riches story from Syracuse. Three brothers from an immigrant family worked their way up through the local Syracuse theatre scene to become producers and theatre managers/owners. By their teens, they managed the top three theatres in Syracuse, and began building a small empire of theatres across upstate New York. They went on to build the largest theatrical empire in the world, creating Broadway as we know it today.
