Of the 2,148 productions we hold that opened in the 1920s and record a performance count, this is the 217th longest. That is a rank within what we hold, not within everything that was staged.
No closing date. 5,632 of 13,459 productions have none, and at this distance that means the ending was never recorded rather than that the run went on.

2 of these 20 names have a person record behind them and link to one. The other 18 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.
Creative team
- Producer
- Edgar Selwyn
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.
Recordings 1 held for the work
None of these is attributed to this staging. They are filed against Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, and nothing in the record says which production any of them documents. Closing that join is the point of this catalogue and it is not closed yet.
What this page does not know
