Thank you also to the judges, who do a tremendous job travelling all over our region to see the wonderful productions. They are Sophie Benassi, Edwin Briggs, Peter Cox, Peter Dark, Paul Dion, Dave Evans, Jordon Kelly, Ian McLean AM CSC, Chris Neal, Terry O’Connor, Charles Oliver, Stephen Pike, Oliver Raymond OAM, Norma Roberston, Andrew Snell, Anna Somes, Don Whitbread OAM, Coralie Wood OAM, and Peter Young.
Congratulations also to George Lemon, who was presented with an award in honour of his outstanding contribution and loyalty to theatre in the Canberra area. Coralie Wood also deserves to be widely congratulated. She was the founder of the awards and she continues to work extremely hard and really is the CAT awards. Her effort is rewarded, though, as the CATs go from strength to strength. I look forward to the CAT awards next year.
