NODA North West District 1 Awards 2020

First of all, Thank You to everyone who attended our eighth NODA North West District # 1 dinner on Saturday night. We welcomed new groups and long standing NODA members to the event who all attended in spades breaking all records with over 500 of you!  

You can find a breakdown of each category (below) and who took the gongs! 

I introduced everyone to the new District 1 Vice Rep who'll be assisting me in the district from now by attending, reviewing, adjudicating, nominating and selecting the winners for all Drama Productions in District # 1 - starting immediately. I was delighted to welcome your new District # 1 Drama Queen up on to the stage to introduce her self, this was, of course, Stephanie Niland! Steph gave a fantastic address proving that she's the perfect individual for the role who embraces the ethos of NODA and community theatre. I can assure those of you who offer drama productions that everything will remain exactly the same as before, you'll still direct your NODA show invites to me and you'll keep in contact with me as you normally would. Having Steph on board is an exciting expansion to the district which will enable NODA to  keep on top of the service we want to be offering you in this district.

As was said on the evening... there were so many individuals and productions that absolutely deserved accolades that unfortunately didn't take home an award, the pool of talent we've got in district 1 is immense which is fantastic and I'm extremely proud of that but it does mean that we've got excellence competing with excellence making my job of deciding who does eventually win incredibly difficult. 

However, in true awards fashion, there can only ever be one winner . . . so the outcome on Saturday night was . . .
