In the summer of 1939 at Camp Tamiment, a predominantly Jewish resort, a Yiddish parody of Gilbert and Sullivan's 'The Mikado' was staged, featuring notable performers like Danny Kaye and Jerome Robbins.

"Fiddler on the Roof" was originally going to start with a song about Shabbat called "We've Never Missed a Sabbath Yet."

Jerome Robbins, born Jerome Wilson Rabinowitz, was a renowned choreographer, dancer, and stage director.

The recent remake of West Side Story by Steven Spielberg and Tony Kushner has sparked a discussion about the outdated and stereotypical depictions of Puerto Ricans in the original musical.

"West Side Story," a musical created by four Jewish artists at the height of their careers, continues to resonate over 60 years later.
