Don't know about the youth festival but from memory the main festival awards were as follows;

Adjudicator's Certificates;

Award for direction - the lady who directed KTW in The Daytrippers and The Guilt Card

Award for acting - Jayma Knudson for The Return

Award for acting - Phil Barnett for The Return

Awards;

Best Character Performance - Murray Jackson for The Return

Best Supporting Actress - Eva (sorry, can't remember surname) for Postponing the Heat Death of the Universe

Best Supporting Actor - Chris Thomas for The Return

Best Actress - Joint award for the two ladies who appeared in KTW's Day Trippers and The Guilt Card

Best Actor - Martin Lyndsay for One Night Stand-Off

Best Original Script - Martin Lyndsay for One Night Stand-Off

Best Play - Danielle Ashton & Martin Lyndsay for One Night Stand-Off

Best Direction - Danielle Ashton & Martin Lyndsay for One Night Stand-Off

Apologies for not being able to remember the names of the KTW award winners or for being able to remember Eva's surname with regard Best Supporting Actress - I don't have my programme handy. Perhaps someone could do a follow up and fill in the gaps. I'm also unclear as to whether Best Play was a joint award for both Danni and Martin but they won't mind if I lump them in together.

I think that was it - if I've ommitted anyone or anything, my apologies.

Great festival as always - my attempt to get Martin drunk enough to affect his performance in One Night Stand-Off backfired and given he was playing a hungover chap in his play, may have in fact helped.
Now it's on to Dramafest - hope to see everyone there.

Oh, and Rob Warner, Rob Warner, Rob Warner!!!!!! (sorry, in joke from the weekend - forgive my indulgence)

Hello Murray

Thank you for letting people know of the winners. It was a pity more people weren't there to see the shows.

Teresa Felvus was the director of the two shows " Day Trippers' and "The Guilt Card" and she won a certificate for direction.

Sue Hicks and Sharon Edsall were the two ladies in both of the above named productions that won Best Actress awards.

Eva DiBlasio was the name of the Girl in the Blak Yak production.
I am a little confused however, because you have mentioned Jayma Knudsen for the Return, but Jayma wasn't in the Return.

As for the youth section, the winning youth play was " I want my mummy" by the Starlight Youth Theatre, ( which also took out best original play).

Sian Crane took out the Brec Encouragement award. There were a number of certificates as well given to several of the 60 youth performers .

My congratulations to everyone who was involved in any way whatsoever. The Festival is a credit to Bunbury .

Kerri

O.k, I admit I was trying to give The Return more awards then it was entitled to. Jayma won her award for (you guessed it) A One Night Stand-Off.
It gets confusing when you're socialising with the opposition.


ARGH!!!!

The Theatre on Chester (Sydney) presents
The Servant of Two Masters


Written by Carlos Goldini. Re-Written by Nick Enright and Ron Blair.

Carla Moore

Goldoni is made grouse in this colourful and riotous comic masterpiece. Truffaldino doesn’t really think through the problems inherent in having two bosses – especially when they’re unaware of each other’s presence and desperate to get back into each other’s pants. Our hero reckons he’s found a way of increasing his coin and food income on his labour. Or, as he puts it: “two masters, two wages, two dinners – too right!”
