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. 1 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.

- Perhaps one sequence summed up the quirky and eccentric nature of the material. Walter Kerr in the New York Herald Tribune reported that as Anthony Newley began to sing a number, he suddenly noticed a package on the stage that was meant for someone else; but for all his efforts he just couldn’t concentrate on the song because of his obses…ebooks/Dietz, Dan/Complete Book of 1950s Broadway Musicals, The - Dan Dietz.txt
- Sunday, April 28, 1963. Anthony Newley enters the Hotel Americana’s Imperial Ballroom to see if he can win one, two, three, or four Tony Awards for his musical Stop the World—I Want to Get Off. In the seventeen-year history of the awards, no person has ever been eligible for so many different Tonys in a single season.ebooks/Filichia, Peter/B007L4OWCU EBOK - Peter Filichia.txt
- While the Tonys didn’t recognize Anthony Newley as the 1962–1963 season’s MVP, we must.
