Copy character string to character pointer in C

Here is a simple program to demonstrate my problem. I have a function functionB which passes pointer to a character array to functionA. functionA finds the value and stores it to a character array. The content of character array should be copied to character pointer fdate. How can I achieve this?

int functionB() {
    char fdate[20];
    functionA(&fdate[0]);
    return 0;
}

int functionA(char *fdate) {
    char date[20] = "20 May 2016";
    strcpy(fdate, date);
    return 0;
}
