Notes
○ Comeback was the only new play presented during the 1963 summer season.
○ David Campton played an integral part in the first decade of Theatre in the Round at the Library Theatre and was the theatre manager for the majority of the period. He is the only playwright to have had a play produced by the company every year for the first decade.
○ Comeback was presented without an interval.
