Of the 705 productions we hold that opened in the 1950s and record a performance count, this is the 224th longest. That is a rank within what we hold, not within everything that was staged.

15 of these 17 names have a person record behind them and link to one. The other 2 are set from the identifier in the cast list, which is a slug of the name — so hyphens and full stops are lost and a few come out wrong. We hold nothing else about them. Nobody here is matched to a character: the cast list records who was in the company and not what they played.

A producer is one string on this record, however many people or companies it names. Directors and choreographers are held both as text and as identifiers; where an identifier exists the name links to a page.
