Gordon's 6 minutes
of Fame. When we received information about a six minute
playwriting competition run by Total Beast Theatre Company a few months
ago, four or five of us thought we'd have a go at it.
But you know how these things go: you write what you think is the
best thing since sliced bread, kiss the envelope, and send it off with
every finger crossed. Then you hear nothing. Nothing, that is, unless
your name happens to be Geo. R. MacDonald (or Gordon, as we know him).
No, he didn't win first prize - but he came very close. Highly
commended, no less, and one of the top ten plays received. And not
only that, but Gordon's play "The Bus Shelter" will be performed at a
special event in London this August. As the judges said, the play was
"funny and touching with good characterisation."
He hasn't been in the group two minutes, and he's produced six of the
best. All we can say is, WELL DONE GORDON!! More of the same again,
please.
