Several years after my time, but back to the basement to get you started with the names in the review in The Scarborian no. 55.

There isn't a complete cast list, but are the people whom the reviewer mentions by name:

Subtle was played by Robert Southwick "with a suitably academic facade;" Dol Common: Adrienne Male (probably sixth from the left in the picture); Sir Epicure Mammon ("an elderly, greedy, licentious dupe"): Richard Potts; Ananian ("a hypocritical Scottish preacher"): John Barnshaw (third from the right?); Drugger: John Riley; Lovewit: Ian Tomlinson; Dame Pliant: Alison Bartliff (second from right?); Surly: Paul Bramley; Kastril: Harvey Pickup.

Now it's up to a contemporary of these folks to fit the names to the faces.
