Each row is a staging this name appears in the cast list of, read from the production record rather than from the person record. The person record names works instead, and a work cannot say which run somebody was in. That is how Elaine Stritch ends up filed under Show Boat 1927 when she was in the 1994 revival. No row here says what part was played, because no cast list records it.

Both names in the same cast list, more than once. It is not evidence of a partnership. A long-running company puts the same forty people together every night, but it is where one would start looking. 6 of these names are not links because we hold no record behind them; the name is set from the identifier and its punctuation may be wrong.

These come off the person record, which names a work and not a production. So we can say this name is attached to the work and we cannot say which staging, or in what capacity. For a composer or a writer that is the whole career we hold; there is no cast list to find them in.

• George Hearn, Walter Charles, Keene Curtis, and Gary Beach all had something in common when playing Albin and his onstage alter ego Zaza in La Cage aux Folles. They were excellent in portraying a female impersonator.B007L4OWCU EBOK - Peter Filichia
• The original production had had George Hearn’s Albin and Gene Barry’s Georges walk off arm in arm at the end of the show. True, in the revival that had played five years earlier, Gary Beach and Daniel Davis kissed—just as Kelsey Grammer and Douglas Hodge did here. But Hodge threw himself into it with an extra zest. So even those who came…B007L4OWCU EBOK - Peter Filichia

What this page does not know

• What this person played. No cast list we hold records a character against a performer.
• Any portrait. Most people in this catalogue don't have one, so this is the usual case rather than the exception.
• Which of the credits above the roles on this record (actor) apply to. The roles sit on the person and never on a credit, so a director who also acted looks the same here as one who did not.
