Notes
○ The play is now generally presented as Arden of Faversham, however the original spelling for the play was 'Feversham' and this was the name used for this production in 1968.
○ The 1968 summer season is unique in the company's history in that none of the acting company had ever worked at Theatre in the Round at the Library Theatre before and none of them would rejoin the company in subsequent years.○ This is believed to be the first professional in-the-round production of Arden of Feversham in the UK.
