Talked to the director of my Short and Sweet - Singapore entry. The performance went well. All of the plays in my group were performed twice, since the first performance completely sold out. The actors and the director apparently did a great job bringing the silly words I wrote to life.
There are a couple of different judging categories. Out of the 10 plays that were performed alongside of mine, I tied for third in the judges voting. This is better than I expected since the judges were actual theater people, and I'm as new to this as can be. However, there's a People's Overall Choice where audience members vote for the best play out of all of the groupings. In that, I came in second.
So the people paying for the tickets like me a lot. I wish I could have seen it. After trading emails back and forth with the director, I could tell that she and her actors were having a ball (and working their butts off) putting this thing on stage.
Go Team.

That's awesome!!! You'll have a Tony in no time...
Holy crap! Nice job, dude.
See? You're good at this playwriting thing. You gonna enter something in the one in Melbourne?
"Short & Sweet is the biggest festival of short theatre in the world. Held annually in Sydney, Melbourne and now Singapore, the Festival has staged nearly 400 plays, watched by 18,000+ people."
And you got second place as viewers choice and third as judges choice.
Now... will you please stop complaining about how much you suck as a writer? :)
Yeah, dude. KYLE is the one that sucks.
Sweet deal, man. We can at least assure the audience that the Two One Acts will be at least half-decent.
