- Truth to tell, Carole Bayer Sager was terribly inept at the lyric-writing craft. Only fourteen lines into the show, she delivered her first half-rhyme (“Learn” and “burned”); in song two came her first misaccented word (“melo-DEE”). So when Sonia later said, “I’ll spend four weeks looking for the right words in a song,” we realized that s…ebooks/Filichia, Peter/Strippers, Showgirls, and Sharks - Peter Filichia.txt

- his then-girlfriend, lyricist Carole Bayer Sager (of the 1970 Georgy)— came up with a sketch of an idea about a neurotic songwriting couple. This became a sketchy, gimmicky musical with a negligible score provided by the prototypes themselves.

What this page does not know
- What this person played. No cast list we hold records a character against a performer.
- Any staging. This name appears in no production cast list we hold — 1,877 of 7,139 people are in that position, most of them writers, composers and designers rather than performers.
- Which of the credits above the roles on this record — lyricist — 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.
