Notes
○ Love & Chance (also known as A Game Of Love & Chance) was presented in a double-bill with The Man With A Flower In His Mouth.
○ Love & Chance was not originally intended to be presented as part of a double-bill and was advertised as just one play. However, when it was realised the running time was just 70 minutes, a decision to add a second play for the evening was made.
○ Love & Chance was presented without an interval.
