Links to Performances

A Work in Progress. Updated September 2013:

(Here's more about the blog Preface)

Performances with links to existing posts are pretty clearly indicated. However, most of the performances before 1977 as yet have only one or two posts. Performances from 1977 through 1992 are the most filled out.

I also want to point out other performances below even if I haven't reached them. This doesn't make this an inclusive list by year, by any means. (For instance, just glancing below, no Marlene Dietrich. Nor idiosyncratic performances like Alice Brady in Stage Mother for 1933.)

The years between 1977 and 1982 are most thoroughly filled out. There are many links below listed with these years, as well as a fair number of links below for subsequent years until early 1992.

I'm just beginning to post years before 1976.
