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.

- As a play, Hy Kraft’s 1942 comedy, Cafe Crown, doesn’t rank with Picnic, The Man Who Came to Dinner, or Harvey, not to mention Cyrano de Bergerac, so the producers of the musical Cafe Crown (Martin Beck; Apr. 17, ’64; 3) were at a disadvantage to begin with.

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 — book writer — 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.
