Tailpiece – “Where’s Miss Blank ?”

South Yorkshire Times, May 12^th 1951

Tailpiece

“Where’s Miss Blank?” enquired Gilbert at the conclusion of the act.

Barrington, who was sitting with him in the stalls, pointed to the door leading through to the stage and said: ‘She’s round behind.’

I know, said Gilbert ‘but where is she?’
