FARINGDON FOLLIES: The Making of Grand Eccentric has won The Dr. Henry and Lilian Nesburn Playwright Award in the prestigious Beverly Hills Theatre Guild-Julie Harris Playwright Competition out of some 500 entries. The Award comes with a $1,500 prize.

Additionally, FARINGDON FOLLIES had a staged reading in the town of Faringdon, UK, during its Arts Festival on Sunday, July 11 (2 PM).
Well-known stage and screen actor Jeremy Bulloch read the parts of three characters in the play.

Actually, in this case, it's was a "supermarketed reading!" In keeping with the eccentric nature of the play's subject (Lord Berners), it took place in the produce section of the local supermarket! Now that's a town with a wonderfully wacky sense of humor, isn't it?
