Jakobson language in literature
The Thomashefsky Project was founded in to rescue, communicate and preserve the story of the Thomashefskys and the contribution of the early American Yiddish theatre to American cultural life. Through its work, many disintegrating scores and scripts have been located, catalogued, preserved and reconstructed to recreate as true a version of the original works as possible.
Thousands of pages of scripts, song lyrics, articles from the Yiddish press, memoirs, correspondence and audio recordings have been translated for the first time into English. Under the direction of Michael Tilson Thomas, the stage production, The Thomashefskys: Music and Memories of a Life in the Yiddish Theater was developed based on the dramatic, visual and musical elements from this unique collection and presented in New York, San Francisco, Chicago, Miami, Los Angeles and Tanglewood.
The Thomashefsky Project continues to research and catalogue materials in MTT's collection as well as holdings of other archive
