Answer correctly and ask your own question. Then whoever answers that question correctly offers another question, and so on.
What writer appears as a character (under his or her own name) in two different Broadway shows?

No, George Bernard Shaw is not correct.
The person is a character under his (or her) own name in two musicals based on the writer's books. One of the two shows has a Cy Coleman score.
I can't figure out how Mactor's post wound up getting attached to this thread.

They both took "Ethel Merman roles" in film versions of her musicals. Dubarry was a Lady and Panama Hattie?
Who did Hal Prince originally approach to write PARADE before Jason Robert Brown?

Yep, Ann Sothern for Panama Hattie and Lucille Ball for DuBarry Was a Lady.
Your turn.
