Written by Dean Beedell (webmaster)   
Nansi Diamond and her team for 'Happy Birthday Me' achieved a lot. Firstly, at the Kenton Geoffrey Atkinson was awarded 'best actor'. And Gareth Saunders as Superman got a special mention.

On to Cornerstone Theatre at Didcot where Jan Beyts and Geoffrey were among the nominations for best performer. Gareth's Superman appearance was nominated for 'Best Theatrical Moment'.

unicorn_theatre_lights.jpgAt the Unicorn, Abingdon, it was non-competetive but the Adjudicator chose our play as one of just three to do a repeat performance on the last night. And Superman's entrance was one of the nominations for the Colin Dexter award for 'Best Theatrical Moment', the sole award given at Abingdon.

Finally, at the Corn Exchange, Wallingford, we were one of the three plays nominated for all-round best performance.

And Geoffrey again got the top personal award for 'Best Performer'. Superman, of course, could not escape praise again... And an unexpected extra - the Adjudicator, departing from normal practice, specially praised the script of the play - adapted for us by our President, Simon Williams from his full-length play 'Laying the Ghost'.
