Notes
○ Before Your Very Eyes marked the writing debut of the actor Michael Cashman at the Stephen Joseph Theatre In The Round. Michael was a prominent member of the company for several years, but later became better known as Colin Russell in the BBC's Eastenders - a character involved in the first gay kiss in a British soap opera. He went onto become an MEP and a prominent gay and human rights activist.
