I have one optional note for section 6

@ 18:47 "in scenes of certain kinds" should be "in scenes of a certain kind"

Section 7 notes:

9:31 "I have referenced above" - should be "I have referred above"

@12:28 "his light" - should be "his lights"

Section 6 now PL OK!

Both are PL OK!

I've enjoyed listening to this project very much, Jim. Well read and interesting. Brought back lots of memories from years ago when I was very involved in community theater. I've done all the jobs behind the scenes at one point or another. Everything except act!

Anyway, unless you have any changes to make to the description, I will get on with the cataloging.

Same here - except I was pulled in to play "Big Businessman 1" in A Christmas Carol - three whole lines!

As my son puts it: Without theatre tech, all you have is a bunch of unmade-up naked people wandering around a bare stage in the dark talking to themselves.

Thanks for all of your help on this project. It was greatly appreciated.

Off we go to the catalogue!

Tell your son, I love it! Great quote.
