| October 2008 - Wivenhoe Youth
Theatre win Awards
Just
an update on the news on Wivenhoe Youth Theatre, I am pleased to
confirm that WYT won awards from the North East Essex Theatre Guild:
-
Best Production for "Bed" for directors Emily Taylor-Smith,
Hannah Saxon and Leanne Nagle
-
Best Young Actress for B Svistunenko (not for Marjorie in
"Bed" -
she had
2 nominations and was awarded for another role she played with
Headgate Theatre,
Colchester
).
-
Best Young Actor for Robbie Taylor-Hunt for Couple Man in "Bed "
Sheila
Foster added: "The award for the directors of the best production was
a new award in Jimmy
James’s honour. Jimmy was always a great supporter of young
theatre-makers, and also occasionally directed for the Wivenhoe Players.
He was a prominent figure in the North East Essex Theatre Guild. We
are particularly delighted, and think that Jimmy would have been too, that
this award went to our talented young directors."
Wivenhoe
Pantomime Group also won a few nominations.
