The event was held (thanks to the extraordinary Stephanie Campion of Moving Parts, who organised a zoom reading of the plays), the votes were cast, and the winner of this years Little Wonder Radio Play Competition is Denise Deegan with “The Last PTA Meeting.”

The Last PTA Meeting was a wonderful, warm, funny play with cracking dialogue and a lot to say about family and parenting. It was a delight to see the play grow and develop through the course of the competition, and it is a well deserved winner.

Warmest congratulations are also due to our other finalists, Amber Elen-Forbat, Mark Blayney, Paul Stone, and Declan Kennedy, who helped ensure an excellent evenings entertainment with imaginative, inventive and diverse plays that would have been worthy competition winners themselves. Thank you everyone.

Now that congratulations have been showered, the rest of this article is an interview with our winner Denise Deegan, so you can learn more about her, her writing, and how she celebrated winning the 2020 Little Wonder Radio Play Competition. Enjoy and read on!
