Of the 2,149 productions we hold that opened in the 1920s and carry a performance count, this is the 221st longest. That is a rank within what we hold, not within everything that was staged.

1 of these 10 names have a person record behind them and link to one. The other 9 are set from the identifier in the cast list, which is a slug of the name, so hyphens and full stops are lost and a few come out wrong. We hold nothing else about them. Nobody here is matched to a character: the cast list records who was in the company and not what they played.

A producer is one string on this record, however many people or companies it names. Directors and choreographers are held both as text and as identifiers; where an identifier exists the name links to a page.

What this page does not know

  • No photograph of this staging.
  • No character names. We can say who was in the company and not who they played.
  • No recording is held for The House of Ussher at all.
  • Reviews, box office, running order, understudies and designers: none of it is held for any production.
