On this week’s episode, Rob, and Jamie sit down with Mark Swartz, the Archive Director of The Shubert Archive. Since the mid-’70s, The Shubert Archive has processed and cataloged over one hundred years of theater history, including costume and set designs, scripts, music, publicity materials, photographs, correspondence, business records, and architectural plans. Mark discusses the history of the archive, how things get processed, some of his favorite items, and why the Shubert Organization is truly the heart of Broadway. And, finally, Rob gives us more information on the Shubert brothers and the legendary Shubert Theatre.
