Question about Chess: SPOILER WARNING

Who plays Florence's dad? I know it's a small walk-on role, but I didn't see it listed in the playbill or on Playbill.com. Does anyone know who the actor is or why they don't credit him? Do they avoid crediting him to avoid spoilers?

Yes probably to avoid the spoiler that he's alive. I think in this version she doesn't really believe that he might be alive. That's kind of what I remember from seeing it two months ago.

Well considering that he shuffles onstage, delivers his one or two lines like a Borscht Belt comic and then he's done, maybe he doesn't want the credit?

Nice gig though -- hanging out in his dressing room for 2.5 hours, getting at least Broadway scale (plus benefits) then over and out!
