I also won something else...the Alvin Shaw Award, which is given to the student who they think shows "the most professional potential". It consists of $250 cash-in-hand, plus a $1000 scholarship to the University that hosts the festival (St. Thomas University). Basically, I'm currently considered the most promising young actor/director in my province, which is a HUGE honor.

WOW.
Return - That. Is. AWESOME. I was involved in competitive theater when I was in high school, so I have an
idea of how difficult it can be (but I never directed, damnit, so GOOD ONYA THAT'S FUCKING AWESOME!).
Congratulations, Fuzzy Penguin. :D You honestly deserve it. Are you a high school senior? You going to St. Thomas University?
