Notes
○ Call The Selkie Home was presented as part of an evening called Three One Act Plays. It also featured the plays Office Of Information by Jean Tardieu and The Disguises Of Arlecchino by Clifford Williams.
○ The evening was originally advertised as a double-bill with Office Of Information being a late addition due to Stephen Joseph considering the evening was running too short.
○ This was the second and final new play to be presented at Theatre in the Round at the Library Theatre by Eleanor D Glaser. She had previously been responsible for Circle Of Love, the first play to be performed at Theatre in the Round at the Library Theatre when it opened in 1955.
