We were all impressed with the quality of the plays presented.
Great innovation in set design, lighting and sound, all so critically detailed.
And most important of all was the plausible quality of the acting and directing.
We congratulate the winners (there were no losers) and hope
you proudly display your trophies to remind you of your Chicago visit.
We hope you all enjoyed your visit with us and
we can all share in the camaraderie in Toronto in 2006.
