Lila Kedrova

On stage 2 productions, 15 years

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.

Worked with more than once3 names

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.

In the literature2 passages

• EBB: In the revival, Lila Kedrova played Madame Hortense. She was lovely, but I found her a little taxing because her English was very limited. I think on the screen she could get away with it because you were practically in her mouth, and if nothing else you could lip-read her part.ebooks/Lawrence, Greg/Colored Lights_ Forty Years of Words and Music, Show Biz, Collaboration, and All That Jazz - Greg Lawrence & John Kander & Fred Ebb.txt

What this page does not know

• What this person played. No cast list we hold records a character against a performer.
• Which of the credits above the roles on this record — actor — 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.
