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.

- “All we need is one score,” Jonas said. So did Leap of Faith . Alan Menken’s music was his dullest ever, even when he paraded out gospel numbers. Glenn Slater’s lyrics had an occasional turn of phrase. “A fox like you don’t fool a chick like me,” sang a woman, before later adding, “You’re like an open book that I put down by chapter two.”ebooks/Filichia, Peter/Strippers, Showgirls, and Sharks - Peter Filichia.txt
- Perhaps the devil made book writers Cheri and Bill Steinkellner, composer Alan Menken, and lyricist Glenn Slater do it. Nunsense ’s Dan Goggin became a multimillionaire by using the same low humor, so why shouldn’t Sister Act pander to an equally low common denominator, to audiences that think nuns in a kickline are a riot?ebooks/Filichia, Peter/Strippers, Showgirls, and Sharks - Peter Filichia.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 — 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.
