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.

- Once again, Rose would give neophytes a chance. His songwriters, Gary Geld and Peter Udell, had no Broadway experience, just a few pop hits (including “Sealed with a Kiss”). As Purlie and Lutiebelle, he chose two young performers who had only one Broadway credit: Cleavon Little and Melba Moore, each of whom would win a Tony for Purlie. He…ebooks/Filichia, Peter/B007L4OWCU EBOK - Peter Filichia.txt
- For the musical Angel (Minskoff; May 10, ’78; 5), Peter Udell cowrote the book with Frings and contributed the lyrics, Gary Geld did the music, and Philip Rose produced and directed. It was the third Udell–Geld–Rose collaboration, the team having already done the long-running Purlie and Shenandoah. The musical was announced (under the tit…ebooks/Mandelbaum, Ken/Not Since Carrie_ Forty Years of Broadway Musical Flops - Ken Mandelbaum.txt
- etc., etc. They are not all that awful, but they are worse than Miss Frings. The music by Gary Geld seems to be a pastiche of Jerome Kern. I love Kern. But I doubt whether Kern would compose like Kern were he alive today. And even should he be so foolish, he would not escape the results of such folly. The music sounds faintly like agreeab…theatre-pdfs/More Opening Nights on Broadway - Steven Suskin.txt
- seems to lie with Gary Geld and Peter Udell, the composer-lyricist team that did Shenandoah. That was fairly bland, but Ange/ takes its empty candy-box quality to monumental lengths: it is famine in a candy factory. The authors have made pastel-colored postcards out of Wolfe’s Gants. Ange/ has no feeling to it, only slickness, and the odd…theatre-pdfs/More Opening Nights on Broadway - Steven Suskin.txt
- comed her as a stimulating partner. Gary Geld’s music is the old Broadway show-tune brass almost as often as it is black. With but a momentary exception at the very beginning, there is no dancing. Andtheatre-pdfs/More Opening Nights on Broadway - Steven Suskin.txt
- mounted the Davis play in 1961 to a decent but not overwhelming response. For the musical version Rose enlisted pop songwriters Gary Geld and Peter Udell, with the book from Davis (with Udell and Rose)theatre-pdfs/More Opening Nights on Broadway - Steven Suskin.txt

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.
- Any portrait. 1,626 of 7,139 people have one, so this is the usual case rather than the exception.
- Which of the credits above the roles on this record — composer — 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.
