Already an Award-Winning Actor

Now, I can add "Award-Winning Director" to my theatrical résumé. At last nights Awards Gala for the community theatre where I do most of my shows, I was named as Best Director for this past season for my work Directing Brighton Beach Memoirs.
The show was also named as Best Show. Three of the cast of seven were also honored for their performances. Best Actress in a Leading Role, Best Actor in a Supporting Role, and Best Actor in a Featured Role. My Eugene lost Best Actor in a Leading Role to the guy who played Pseudolus in A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum. The Judges told me that the girl who played nora would have won Best Actress in a Featured Role, but hey had already given her Supporting Actress for Forum, and they wanted to spread the awards around a little.
