OTTC performed ‘Nobody Knows I’m a Dog’ (NKIAD) by Alan D Perkins in two rounds of the All England Theatre Festival; the preliminary round at Swindon, and the divisional round in Pewsey.

Along the way, two things happened. It was suggested to us that we might like to take this play up to an independent festival in Glossop, Derbyshire. The cast agreed that this sounded a fine idea and so we kept NKIAD fresh for that.

At the same time, we were sorry to hear that David Howell, who played Cheese, wouldn’t be able to go. However, we were equally delighted that OTTC’s Bob Charman could step in. All systems go!
