Description Two seasons of three plays combined as "Sextet". By the looks these were all part of a season (In further notes it says “Presented as part of 'Sextet ' season”) that ran from 20 June to 26 July. I guess the main opening for all was on 20 June in a program (looks like in the Wolanski collection) but in reality they probably alternated. No way of telling without the program in hand but the same sort of thing happens with Festival productions.
