11 of these 18 names have a person record behind them and link to one. The other 7 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.

Only 512 of 13,459 productions carry role names, and these came out of a wiki table — the names arrived with the table's own cell markup on them and have been stripped back. They are not linked to person records because the identifiers in that table do not resolve to ours.

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.
Around this production
- A few blips aside, TV shows such as Glee (2009–15) and Smash (2012–13) and movies such as Enchanted (2007) and especially La La Land (2017) prove that the musical is once more a significant genre on the screen, and stage-to-screen adaptations are at the heart of its future. Dominic Mchugh the Oxford Handbook of Musical Theatre Screen Adaptations 2019 Ox, p. 43
- During the slow months of January and February many theatre fans found themselves turning to their TV sets for the cult NBC series “Smash,” about the writing, tryout and Broadway opening of a musical biography of film goddess Marilyn Monroe.

- TV’s Broadway soap opera “Smash” makes its season debut to unexpectedly low ratings. The Playbill Broadway Yearbook June 2012 To May 2013 Robert Viagas 9th Annual Ed, p. 12
- In 2013, I worked as part of the marketing team for the Broadway revival of Macbeth, which starred Alan Cumming… in all of the roles. While Chaplin was the show to immediately precede us, Smash spent several weeks filming scenes surrounding the fictional Broadway musical Hit List at the Barrymore before Macbeth moved i… Untold Stories of Broadway Volume 2 Part 1 the Jennifer Tepper, p. 148

What this page does not know
- No photograph of this staging. 48 of 13,459 productions hold one.
- No recording is held for Smash at all.
- No show page for Smash. The work is here as a title and a year, and nothing more has been gathered about it.
- Reviews, box office, running order, understudies and designers: none of it is held for any production.
