You have a later revision.
"Fallen Angels was revised by Coward for the New York revival in 1956 (seen in London in 1967) and published by Samuel French in New York only, in 1958."
and, a few pages later:
"The play has been revived several times, and was revised by Coward for a production in New York in 1956."
>From the Introduction, by Raymond Mander and Joe Mitchenson, in:

Plays: One
(includes: Hay Fever, The Vortex, Fallen Angels, Easy Virtue)
