Excerpt from The Brickenden Awards: Tom McCamus

2005 - The Fourth Year

Although Retreat from Moscow captures three key awards, no single production dominates the ceremonies. Perpetual nominees Don Fleckser and Julia Webb finally take home the hardware for best director and best actress respectively. Jonathan De Souza wins big with his two original musicals, You Kiss by the Book & Thomas and the Princess while first-time playwright Stephanie Demas scores a Cinderella victory by winning for Best Original Script.

Ceremony highlights include Mike Van Holst's on-stage proposal to his fiance, Megan Morris, a move that completely upstages the presenters that follow. Theatre mentor Art Fidler receives the second Curtain Raiser award and receives a moving tribute from former Oakridge students Tom McCamus and Chris Potter.
