Woooohooooo, Frank! Congratulations.

Do you know how many plays/playwrights you had to beat out to win this? And any idea yet when the staged reading will be?

Congratulations, Frank! I'm really happy for you.
The winning playwright agrees to mention Abingdon Theatre Company and the Christopher Brian Wolk Award in any subsequent literature/programs of future development and/or productions.
Somehow I don't think this will be too much of a hardship!

Even though we've never met, Frank, it is just a great feeling to "know" a person capable of such good works. Congratulations!
Enough already. It's my fault! Get over it!

That'll be $10, please.

Write On, Bro!

You should feel very proud.

I would love to either see it perfomed, hear it read or read the script. Could you invite the cast down to Austin - it would make a great addition to either my viewing party or to my son's upcoming Bar Mitzvah reception.
