Mar 22, 2010 -
Bottle Tree Productions Artistic Director; Charles Robertson was quoted as saying that last year, Americans Evan Guilford-Blake who won first prize and Richard Rossi who finished third led a very strong American contingent of writers. “Only Talia Pura from Manitoba with her second place showing prevented the Americans from sweeping the competition.”
Robertson who organized the contest with company Executive Anne Marie Mortensen went on to say; “ As a writer, I wanted to give a voice to other writers. I very much appreciate the struggle most writers have in getting recognition.”
When asked what Bottle Tree Productions does, Charles said. ‘We do a bit of everything. We do a lot of productions;
musicals, kid’s shows, provocative dramas. We train young people, and we do a lot of work in the community.” And what about online services? “Well, we have this competition and we provide free resources for actors. “ The company website; www.bottletreeinc.com , has information about the 2010 competition and biographies of last year’s winners.
