 * Comment, there seems to be an extensive number of theatre appearances, which may convey notability. Maybe someone more familiar with that branch of performing arts can tell us if any of these productions are significant?  Lankiveil (speak to me) 10:57, 10 April 2008 (UTC).
 * Delete A long list of well known plays and musicals doesn't convey notability - many of these are commonly produced at amateur or semi-amateur level.  The references to entertainment industry sites such as Imdb are pretty threadbare, citing just Blue Water High.  Notability not established in my view. Murtoa (talk) 12:07, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Murtoa makes a good point - there's no evidence his performance of The Witches of Eastwick (etc.) was anything more than amateur. I'm not seeing anything on his IMDB bio. dihydrogen monoxide (H2O) 23:51, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
