Here’s a nice little article about Williamston Theatre!
Also, in my last post I mentioned some of the Michigan Theatre Awards. Well, for years the “biggest” have been the Detroit Free Press Theatre Awards. Unfortunately, due to cutbacks, they’ve decided to not have a big gala awards ceremony anymore. They did, however, publish the awards in their paper this morning.
The fun news is that Take Me Out, the show that I took over directing last summer, won Best Play and Jim Posante and I won Best Director for that show! Williamston Theatre gets a little mention too, which is nice! Read the article here
Yay Tony!
Congrats! Good for you on winning the best-director award. You should be so proud! And the blurb about Williamston Theater sure can’t hurt either!
Re: Yay Tony!
Thanks! Yep, it’s nice to have someone say they like your work. I’m also really happy they mentioned Williamston, the publicity can’t hurt!
And your Bogle won for best feature actor too! Though not as the Bogle, but for Take Me Out. Thats like a Free Press Sweep!

I’m really happy for him, he was great in that show! Ray Schulz was tremendous in his role, too, but didn’t win – too bad. Nice for him to get nominated though!
Yay! Take Me Out! Go team! =)
Yay! Congrats to you, too! Too bad you’re all corporate now, and forsaking all theatre! 🙂
You know better than anyone that cash has to come before theatre – I have to pay bills somehow. At least it’s still moderately theatre related, and the people I work with are fun.
Hey, believe me, I’m right there with ya! I’m about to start selling freakin’ plasma!
That’s a great thing, too – the people you work with are fun! There’s nothing worse than working with people you don’t like – too too TOO many hours spent busting your butt with people you don’t want to be with will kill you!!
Congratulations! What a great honour!
Thanks, Allison! It is a nice honor – very flattering, and humbling, because there were a lot of good shows this year. Nice to just be recognized with that group!
I just saw that in the paper! Congrats!
Thank you!
Congratulations, Tony!! 🙂
Thanks happybunny! Have a great tech week!
YAY! Congrats Tony. Good things happening to good people–finally!
Love,

Annie, you rock! Thank you!
Congrats Tony! Too bad you can’t get up and do an acceptance speech….I can get a group together and you do one for us if you want??!!
*laughing*
No, thanks, I think I’ll be okay without the speech! Who knows what would’ve come out of my mouth, so it’s probably a good thing!
I will write your speech for you:
“I would like to thank my family and the great cast and my therapist and blah, blah, blah, bladiditty-blah….
BUT most of all I would like to thank Beth for teaching me everything I know.”
hahahahahahhahah!!!
*evil manical laughter*
*Laughing*
Damn, if ONLY there had been a ceremony!
