52:. While the discussion is tending towards delete, consensus is not evident, given the renewed call for merging the contents. I would suggest here that discussions may be held by concerned editors on the relevant talk page with respect to whether this article should be merged or not.

What I'd like to see is a profile of Rhea - not of the Keegan, and some coverage that is not local. That's a standard, by the way, that get applied at AfD to people in other cities, including NYC.

In particular, directors of some D.C. theaters stage productions for which their directors get written up they the Times and other NYC media papers that follow theater. I am just not seeing notability here. I am arguing MERGE on teh strength of ongoing, INDEPTH coverage over many years in the DC media of Rhea in the context of the Keegan.

Oh, I wasn't trying to change your opinion. I was simply asking the question because I truly wasn't sure, myself. I would think that a localized award - "major world city" or otherwise - would still come up short for establishing notability for a single individual, but that's just my two cents on it.

The Helen Hayes Awards have their own
Knowledge page, and looking through press it does seem to be notable, but the awards are Washington specific. Washington however is a major world city and important in the theatre world. So, I'm for now leaning towards considering them. Multiple nominations for a
