Shubert
Broadway producing family
Shubert is a surname most associated with the Shubert brothers—Sam, Lee, and Jacob—American theater impresarios who built a theatrical empire in the early 20th century.
The Shubert Organization they founded still owns and operates many Broadway theaters in New York City.
We're seeing a show at one of the Shubert theaters.
The name is sometimes confused with Schubert, the Austrian composer.
