Not notable. Unable to locate significant coverage in independent reliable sources. Cited sources are unreliable databases (IMDb, IBDb), simple database listing (AllMusic) showing he exists and a bare mention in the NYT. SummerPhD (talk) 18:35, 2 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Just looking at the Press page on Schreier's website, he's been written about in the New York Times, Variety, Wall Street Journal, Reuters, and several other independent reliable sources. And looking at the Resume page of his website, he has three Tony Award nominations, six Drama Desk Award nominations (including three wins), and an Obie Award. On Google it looks like he's gotten a "bare mention", on up to a more detailed discussion of his work on different plays, quite a few times in the New York Times alone. I'd say he definitely passes the Wikipedia notability standard. — Mudwater^(Talk) 00:01, 3 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Mudwater. On the basis of the renown of the award (and the likely press coverage in reliable sources that winning it would generate), I hold to the general proposition that all winners of Drama Desk awards are presumptively notable. Xoloz (talk) 02:13, 3 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Sufficient evidence can be found of multiple awards in his field to establish basic notability. AllyD (talk) 05:58, 3 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Schreier has just been nominated for a 2014 Tony Award and has received two 2014 Drama Desk nominations for his work on Broadway. I believe artist who have been nominated for Tony Awards and Drama Desk Awards are people of note. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Radiodrama (talk • contribs) 17:57, 4 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment: Yes, good point. Here's a reference for the 2014 Tony nomination, and here's one for the two 2014 Drama Desk noms. — Mudwater^(Talk) 18:56, 4 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
