Marillyn “Dolly” Beechman Schnall (nee
Lush) was born April 9, 1924 in Philadelphia
and succumbed on October 29, 2020 to long-
term complications from stroke. A four-dec-
ade resident of Wyndmoor, PA, since 2013
she had resided at Sunrise in Abington, PA.

Dolly earned a B. A. from University of
Pennsylvania in 1944 as a Spanish major and
an M.F.A. in theater from Temple University
School of Theater and Communications in
1970. Her first paid work in theater was at
age 16 as a summer stock apprentice at the
Cape Theater in Cape May, New Jersey.

Eventually she appeared in on-stage roles
there and many other local stages, including
the Philadelphia Theater Company, the Las-
alle Music Theater, Temple University, the
Keswick Theater, and the Burgundy Room
Theater. She was a member of both the
Screen Actor's Guild and Actor's Equity. She
worked not only as an actor, but also direc-
ted numerous local productions. She worked
independently as an acting coach, and taught
theater at Rutgers Camden, Camden County
Community College, and Penn State Abing-
ton. She was also a playwright, working with
Enchantment Theater Company, writing and
directing commercial efforts such as the
Strawbridge Christmas show, and in collab-
oration with the late Patricia Sternberg writ-
ing Philadelphia Parade of Progress for the
bicentennial celebration, The Treaty Never
Broken (about William Penn), and Sojourner
(a biographical play about Sojourner Truth).

Her last work, funded by a Pennsylvania
Council on the Arts grant, is Without the
Sainted Father, a play about Abe Lincoln's
family in the years after his assassination.

She served on the boards of The Walnut
Street Theater, the Wilma Theater, Act II
Playhouse, Enchantment Theater, and 1812
Productions. Dolly married Dr. Nathan
Schnall in 1984, and together they helped
provide financial support to the non-profit
theater community in Philadelphia. In 2008,
Dolly Beechman Schnall was honored as
“Woman of the Year” by 1812, and received
the Barrymore Award for Lifetime Achieve-
ment for Excellence in Theatre from the
Theatre Alliance of Greater Philadelphia. Dolly
maintained a lifelong interest in expanding
her knowledge of Romance languages, and
after retiring from teaching, took courses in
Latin at Chestnut Hill College. In addition to
serving on boards, she also travelled with her
husband Dr. Nathan Schnall, widely and fre-
quently throughout Europe. Dolly and Nate
were also devoted to the Shaw Festival in
Niagara-on-the-Lake, in Canada, making
many annual trips. Dolly is survived by her
husband, Dr. Nathan Schnall, and her daugh-
ters Claudia Cohen (Barry), Jane Segal
(Steven), and grandchildren Beryl Cohen, Re-
id Cohen, Julian Segal (Lauren), Evan Segal
(Gabrielle), Brett Segal, Beatrice Dolly Segal,
and nephew Bruce Maggin. She was pre-de-
ceased by her first husband Eugene Beech-

safety, graveside services were private. The
family will plan for a memorial gathering at a
safer time. Anyone wishing to honor Dolly
