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.

- In the end though, it was always going to be the year of The Producers . The smash hit musical adaptation of Mel Brooks’ irreverent 1968 comedy film had opened to rave reviews on 19 April 2001 and had been nominated for 15 awards across 12 categories. It would go on to win 12 (one in each of its nominated classes), breaking the 37 year re…ebooks/Bagnall, Rob/Still the Beast is Feeding_ 40 Years of Rocky Horror - Rob Bagnall & Phil Barden.txt
- On my last afternoon in New York, before I had to fly home, I went to see Rupert Holmes’s musical adaptation of Charles Dickens’s unfinished novel The Mystery of Edwin Drood, which remains one of my favourite musicals.

- Incidentally, Norman Shelly, who was Nana (the dog) and Crocodile, and Joe E. Marks, who was Smee, played the same roles in the 1954 musical adaptation. For the record, Buzzy Martin, who played Nibs, is not the same Buzz Martin who created a number of memorable dancing roles in Broadway musicals (see A Tree Grows in Brooklyn ).ebooks/Dietz, Dan/Complete Book of 1950s Broadway Musicals, The - Dan Dietz.txt
- But Hughes wasn’t so lucky with the musical adaptation, because The Barrier ’s run of four performances was one of the decade’s shortest. The word “opera” best categorizes the work, and Hughes’s contribution might be precisely defined as the libretto, and not book and lyrics. But the use of the word “opera” was avoided, and the program de…ebooks/Dietz, Dan/Complete Book of 1950s Broadway Musicals, The - Dan Dietz.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.
- Birth or death year. Neither is on the record.
- Any biography.
- 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.
