The Newtownabbey One-Act Drama Festival at The Courtyard Theatre was won by Holywood Players with 'The Bay at Nice' by David Hare. An added bonus was the joint Best Actress award made to mother and daughter Carole and Heidi Stewart. The other members of the cast, Brian Sleith and Peter Gilroy were also warmly praised by the adjudicator as was the set and we go forward to the other festivals with enthusiasm.
