May I also do 047 Margaret Fuller Slack, please

You got it, Gesine!

Oh good, 'cause I've just done it! :)

Gesine; no URL.

That was fun! I was just in the mood for some poetry. If there are any left later, I'll be back for more!

Laura, I'll take some, if you could just randomly assign me five females that would be great!

marlodianne · Post by **marlodianne** » April 17th, 2006, 1:14 pm

I'll take:

018 - Trainor, the Druggist
021 - Minerva Jones
023 - Doctor Meyers
026 - Knowlt Hoheimer
040 - Theodore the Poet

And Laura, the epilogue looks too tempting to resist. But then, I do love weird, so...I was hooked right at the opening, with the first and second voice, exchange.

I agree, I'd leave the Epilogue in. After all, he wrote it... and whacky is good! :)

Got those, Gesine; all sound great. Thank you!

Annie, 5 random ladies coming up:

232 - Lydia Humphrey
210 - Jennie M'Grew
162 - Ida Frickey
124 - Widow McFarlane
076 - Nancy Knapp

Marlo- I put you down for the five you requested. As for the epilogue, you can have it entire if you want it and I'll leave it to your discretion. Otherwise I'll try to get a cast list together soon. I think it just threw me for a loop as I didn't know something like it was in here.

And for myself, I'll claim Amanda Barker and Charlie French.

Wow. I didn't expect you offer me the whole play.

Aw, but I don't think anyone would want to listen to me read a whole play by myself. Would they?

Oh, the anguish!

Well, you're the BC, your call.

If you want to go with a cast, I'll join it.

If you'd rather I read it myself, which has the bonus of saving you lots of bother and editing, I'm good with that too. Although, we'd have to decide if you want me to read it like a straight text, or how we're treated other plays here.

I'll go drama-style with multiple readers, but given the lack of visuals, I think I'll want one part to read the stage directions.

LMK if there's a role you want.

The challenge with the cast list is sorting out all the minor parts, but I can at least start posting it...

marlodianne · Post by **marlodianne** » April 17th, 2006, 2:27 pm

Okay, a role it is...Beelzebub, who is also the Second Voice in the opening.

Gesine · Post by **Gesine** » April 17th, 2006, 2:28 pm

I'll read the stage directions if you like, and perhaps a minor part (can do a different voice), like the Milky Way

Fox in the Stars · Post by **Fox in the Stars** » April 17th, 2006, 2:55 pm

Okies, I do believe I have the cast list together. Marlo, Gesine, I put you down for the parts you mentioned. Thanks! ^_^

And while I'm at it, I'll take a few parts...

Figure 1
Voice 2
First Voice of Spring
Penultimate Voice

Also, I'm game to be Yogarinda and the Second Voice of Spring as part of the little play at the end.
