Hi All, As some of you may be aware, I have a Librivox podcast to celebrate the 400th Anniversary of Shakespeare's Death due to be posted this Saturday, but I need your help! I am planning to feature recommended clips of past Librivox Shakespeare productions throughout my podcast, but I could do wit...

I will be showing clips of scenes/monologues suggested

The catalog page or even just the name of the play and which version are enough. I can find anything further than that

Hi All, A reminder that I'd like any contributions as soon as possible, as I'd like the podcast to be launched this Saturday :) Anyone with any recommendations of favourite scenes and monologues are very very welcome, otherwise I'll just be adding my own personal reccomendations and favourites from ...

Sorry, I've been away for a bit and missed these

MW has been updated and I will PL tonight

Brilliant idea Twinkle! Just a tip: Don't rush with the Google Docs :) We can all wait I'm sure and the more carefully created they are, the fewer mistakes and thus the fewer mistakes/hassle once the project is up and running! If you'd like anyone to do a quick check of them before you launch for pe...

That would be amazing Anna!


And folks, we are now full! Again, no rush with getting roles in, I want you all to enjoy this play as much as I do

Thank you both!!

Could I also steal Second Commoner? (Doesn't appear in the same scene as Soothsayer) There is nothing better than a little sarcasm and a lot of clowning around (Maybe you should mention that First Commoner only has 1 line, so if anyone wants to take it it's an easy role!)

Roles 27 and 37 are PL OK!

I'd suggest allowing both pronunciations. In Merchant of Venice, Portia was pronounced by different people both ways - either as the (more American, I think) Por-tia or as Por-sha. People will hardly be that confused as they'll know who we're all talking about. Plus, confusion was always Shakespeare...

Anthony Act 1 PL OK Anthony Act 2 PL OK Anthony Act 3 PL OK Anthony Act 4 PL note 0:39 - pronunciation - Octavius. I've always heard (in both Shakespeare and history) at as oct-tay-vius and you pronounce it oct-ah-vius. As BC, it's you're call :) 1:08, 1:38 - again, pronunciation of Octavius Act 5 P...

Finally, after a really long wait... :oops: here's Grausis and the first servant: https://librivox.org/uploads/maryannspiegel/brokenheart_grausis_2.mp3 https://librivox.org/uploads/maryannspiegel/brokenheart_grausis_3.mp3 https://librivox.org/uploads/maryannspiegel/brokenheart_grausis_4.mp3 https:/...

I think addressing it to the listener/community would be best that's how Ive addressed my section. But either way is perfectly fine by me. Thank John, you rock

Chapters 10 and 11 are PL OK
