{"value"=>"<p>This series consists of Jerome Robbins’ theatrical productions and includes his work as choreographer, director, and, even, uncredited show doctor. The series ranges from Robbins’ first show, <span class=\"title\">On the Town,</span> to his last Broadway effort, <span class=\"title\">Jerome Robbins’ Broadway</span>. Included for many shows are correspondence, scripts, contracts, production and financial materials, clippings, and scores. Particularly rich in this material are <span class=\"title\">West Side Story</span>, <span class=\"title\">Fiddler on the Roof</span>, and <span class=\"title\">Jerome Robbins’ Broadway</span>. The first two contain information from the original productions, movie versions, as well as the many revivals, touring companies, and foreign productions that were spawned. This series also contains information on Jerome Robbins’ single opera production <span class=\"title\">The Tender Land</span> and his plays, <span class=\"title\">Mother Courage and Her Children</span> and <span class=\"title\">Oh Dad, Poor Dad, Momma’s Hung You in the Closet and I’m Feelin’ So Sad</span>. A musical such as <span class=\"title\">Silk Stockings</span> is of note in the collection as it was one that Robbins’ never worked on beyond the contract negotiation stage. Included among its material is correspondence, including a letter from Cole Porter, scripts, a contract, production notes and a little financial information.</p>"}
