Notes

○ One Over The Eight was scheduled to have its preview on 8 January 1991 at the Stephen Joseph Theatre In The Round. However, when the actor Richard Long fell ill the day before the show was due to open, the first preview was cancelled and the show's first performance took place on 9 January. Nicholas Palliser took over the role for several performances until Richard Long was fit enough to rejoin the company.
○ The image is a publicity shot of Alan Ayckbourn with members of the company - including Saskia Wickham - learning to row on the River Ouse.
