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.

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.

- IT WAS SEPTEMBER 10, 2001. Michael Jackson was giving a concert at Madison Square Garden to celebrate his thirtieth anniversary in show business and, belatedly, his birthday in August.

- So first I thought we should do an act where the juxtaposition of songs was weird and funny.

Then we segued directly into “Bali Hai” from South Pacific , and the juxtap…ebooks/Tepper, Jennifer Ashley/Untold Stories of Broadway, Volume 2 PART 2, The - Jennifer Ashley Tepper.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 — composer, 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.
