Subject: [NEohioPAL]Jovialities One-Minute Play Competition Winners List
Message-ID: <11227687.1116862057327.JavaMail.root at wamui-chipeau.atl.sa.earthlink.net>

Dear One-Minute Play Festival Entrant,

After much deliberation and many setbacks, I have finally reached a decision on the winners of our First Annual One-Minute Play Festival.  Congratulations to all the winners and to everyone who entered our competition.

I wish to thank everyone who entered.  Despite a wide variety of advertising outlets and an extended deadline for this competition, I received only 75 entries.  After weeding out the plays that were unproducible because of exceptional technical needs and those plays that simply did not adhere to the Festival's theme, I was only able to come up with about 60 producible plays.  I felt that this was hardly enough to provide a full evening's worth of entertainment.  For that reason, I canceled the production phase of this year's Festival.  Hopefully next year I will be able to fulfill the production goal as well.  Watch the NEOhioPAL email list, the Boston Playwright's Writer's Opps email list and other outlets in late August 2005 for the Second Annual Jovialities One-Minute Play Festival guidelines.

I enjoyed reading all of the entries.  They ranged from the blatantly obsequious (plays specifically mentioning Jovialities in the dialogue) to the self-consciously clever.  It seems that marriage was the preferred theme as nearly 70% of the entries were on that theme.  In fact, all three winners are from the marriage theme category.  Particularly interesting were the plays that mixed two themes.

The winners succeeded in capturing my imagination by casting marriage as a negotiation.  Structurally this worked very well in the One-Minute format.  The Grand Prize winner even successfully mixed the marriage and medieval themes.  Since there were so many excellent plays, I decided to extend the awards to list several Honorable Mentions as well as the prizewinners.

This letter and list will be mailed to prizewinners and anyone who sent me and SASE and emailed to anyone who supplied me with an email address and will be posted on the NEOhioPAL email list.  So, without any further ado, here are the winners:

First Place ($20.00) - The Negotiations of Medieval Marriage by Tom Smith, Las Cruces, NM
Second Place ($15.00) - Next! By Nancy Gall-Clayton, Louisville, KY
Third Place ($10.00) - The Option by Marina Koestler and Adam Ruben, Baltimore, MD

Prize Checks will be mailed out on or around June 1, 2005.

Honorable Mentions (in no particular order):
Standardized Tests by J. Boyer, Tempe, AZ
Not Like Us by Alexander Fraser, Chevy Chase, MD
A Suburban Housewife Applies The Age-Old Lesson That The Best Way to a Man's Heart Is through his Stomach by Dwayne Yancey, Fincastle, VA
One Minute Hamlet by Matthew Haldeman, Haverford, PA
2nd Grade by Mark Bernhardt, Canton, OH
The Murder of Mr. William Shakespeare by Alan Jozwiak, Cincinnati, OH
A Dog's Look at Marriage by D. R. Meyers, Lakewood, OH

Thanks Again to Everyone Who Participated
