S.T.A.R.Fest
Six short productions, some comedic, some
dramatic, competed for 1st and 2nd Place awards, which were presented on
closing night. Winners are listed below.
In between acts, our MC,
Gene Renfroe, a popular comic at clubs such as
Zanies,
entertained with his stand-up routine.
We'd like to thank
our judges, Jean Fleszewski of the Daily Southtown newspaper,
Aimee-Lynn Newlan of Imagination Theater, and Alan Ziebarth
of the Chicago Public Library.
Alternate judges
were veteran actors Kate Kisner and
Mary Catherine McGreal Redmon.
