The dog that has to yawn to order. March 27th 1973
An audition took place in Broad Court, off Drury Lane, London to find a placid bored mongrel dog, able to yawn on cue. The dog was required for the part of Crab in the rock musical " Two Gentlemen of Verona", which opened at the Phoenix Theatre, London on 26th April 1973. The dog will be playing opposite entertainer Benny Lee. The dog finally chosen was a six year old mongrel called " Ponting", owned by Mrs Daphne MacDonald of Chelsea. She picked him up as a stray. Our Picture Shows: Some of the dogs competing for the role. Unfortunately they were pipped at the post by Ponting
