The winning plays, their directors and casts were announced by co-producers Joan Laughlin and Rhona Saunders. Laughlin also serves as coordinator of the New Plays competition.

“The Long Trick” by Faye Ellen Graetz of Fort Myers will be directed by Janina Birtolo. The cast includes Lori Broderick, Michael Troop and Derek Perry, reading the story of an old, homebound sailor as he gives his sailing buddies a personal send-off and faces his own mortality.

“Undercurrent” written by Robert Hilliard of Sanibel will be directed by Claire McKinney.  Cast includes Phil Cole, Sid Davis, Bob Hill, Todd Irby, Asia Johnson, Gigi Wietecha and Ron Wietecha.

The third play “Darker than Tut’s Tomb” by Carole Fenstermacher is directed by Anna Segreto, working with a cast that includes Vic Caroli, Patti Caroli, Val Kuffel and Carla Grieve.
