And\u00a0the\u00a0winners\u00a0for\u00a02009\u00a0are\u00a0…<\/font><\/font><\/h1>\n

The\u00a0jury\u00a0is\u00a0in\u00a0and\u00a0the\u00a0results\u00a0for\u00a0the\u00a0Butties\u00a0for\u00a0the\u00a02008-2009\u00a0Season\u00a0are\u00a0as\u00a0follows\u00a0
(in\u00a0bold,\u00a0following\u00a0by\u00a0other\u00a0nominees\u00a0in\u00a0order), but first here is Martin Kirk’s opening speech. You can also find\u00a0photos from the event on Picasa<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“Good Afternoon and welcome to the second BUTTie awards extravaganza! \u00a0You\u2019ve got to have faith to come here, or perhaps you had Dobson\u2019s choice?Well it\u2019s just a bit of nunsense, so may the best man (or woman) \u00a0win. \u00a0You don\u2019t have to be a red hot lover or a ghost to have voted and I promise the results have not been fiddled. \u00a0And if you win there may be dancing at Jim\u2019s in this afternoon shared with friends. \u00a0<\/p>\n

We may not be singing carols (the weather is not suitable no snow), Queens greatest hits instead? But we are crazy for the music (or just crazy) and whatever the music we have the compleat works of the 2008-09 season. \u00a0So there is no reason to be jealous of the Buttie T-shirts they are on sale to all (proceeds to new sound desk) , but only an absurd person would cavell about the results. \u00a0You can vote for the best costume here , perhaps the\u2019re will be an Oscar for a lady in pink or the snappy dresser not out over there. \u00a0If after 100 votes you have still not won don\u2019t fume, or act dumb, but buy a good book (mail order). And on you riverside drive home we hope this skinny education of last season\u2019s theatrical labours lost will leave you delirious.”<\/p>\n
