Tony Charmoli

On stage 3 productions, 1 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.

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.

• EBB: A number called “I Wrote the Book.” I don’t know why that was giving Tony Charmoli problems, but Tommy came and actually he staged it on me. I guess I walk like Bacall. I’m about as graceful as she is. It was less choreography than staging.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
• KANDER: Tony Charmoli was the choreographer, and how they got to the point where they called Tommy in I don’t remember either. Tommy sort of comes in and out of our lives. I think we had met before but never worked together.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.
• 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 — 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.
