Peter Gennaro

On stage 5 productions, 24 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 once11 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. 8 of these names are not links because we hold no record behind them; the name is set from the identifier and its punctuation may be wrong.

Fiorello!

Mr. President

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.

• When rehearsals began, I was mesmerized. They had brought in famed choreographer Peter Gennaro, added a few more chorus people, and Dorothy Loudon was now playing Miss Hannigan. When Sandy saw Andrea McArdle, he went crazy. He loved her so much. In fact, as happy as Sandy was with me, he seemed even happier to be back in a rehearsal room.…ebooks/Berloni, Bill/Broadway Tails_ Heartfelt Stories of Rescued Dogs Who Became Showbiz Superstars - Bill Berloni & Jim Hanrahan.txt

What this page does not know

• What this person played. No cast list we hold records a character against a performer.
• 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 — choreographer, 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.
