Congratulations to our award winners and to all participants, and  festival committee and volunteers, for helping make the first annual ActoberFest such a success.

Adjudicator Linda Beaven read this quote of Tennessee Williams ' before handing out the Awards:

" Community theatres have a social function and it is to be that kind of irritant in the shell of their community. Not to conform, not to wear the conservative business suit of their audience, but to let their hair grow long and even greasy, to make wild gestures, break glasses, fight, shout, and fall downstairs! When you see them acting like this - not respectably, not quite decently even! - then you will know that something is going to happen in that outfit, something disturbing, something irregular, something brave and honest."
