Useless info about the scheduling of the episode:

In Philadelphia this episode aired on 30 January 1955 on WCAU-TV at 9:30PM, aired against "Life Begins at 80" on WFIL-TV and "Goodyear Television Playhouse" on WPTZ.

In the same city the episode was repeated on 17 March 1959 at 3:00PM on WCAU-TV, aired against "Young Doctor Malone" on WPTZ and "Beat the Clock" on WFIL-TV. This broadcast was aired as "Star Performance".

In Buffalo New York the episode aired at 30 January 1955 at 9:30PM on WBEN, aired against "The Ruggles" on WBUF and "Goodyear Television Playhouse" on WGR.

In Sydney Australia the episode aired on 8 January 1958 on TCN-9 at 8:30PM as part of "Chesebrough-Ponds Playhouse", and aired against "Science Fiction Theatre" on ABN-2 and US TV special "Pursuit of Happiness" on ATN-7.

In Melbourne Australia it aired 15 January 1958 on HSV-7 at 8:30PM as part of "Chesebrough-Ponds Playhouse", aired against "ABC Tele-Variety" (Sydney-produced variety show) on ABV-2 and "Pursuit of Happiness" on GTV-9.

So this episode has aired under three titles ("Stage 7", "Star Performance", and "Chesebrough-Ponds Playhouse"), which must be very confusing!
