Each year Susan gives more to this company, she is family now! Thank you for all you do Susan, well deserved.

John has been a set builder, he organises for our sets to get from the studio to the Forge Theatre, maintains the gardens and SO much more!. We could go on forever with how much he puts into this company, but this award is definitely well deserved to John. Thank you for your outstanding effort and contribution to this Theatre Company, John.
