Sorry it's so late. I don't think I've had as hectic a month in my life.

Act 1 is 6:30
Act 2 is 9:09
and Act 3 is 4:34
I was recording in a different location, all feedback welcome, good or bad. I have a feeling there may be a little too much background noise on occasion, I'll let you judge.

Great fun as always!

Hi Sean and thank you!

Great, passionate performance!

Background noise did crop up occasionally, but I think we can live with it - it's not too obstrusive.

Just the following small errors to follow up:
Act 1
3:50
You read: Banish the cancer of ambitious thoughts.
Instead of: Banish the canker of ambitious thoughts.

Act 2

3:16
You read: have you not beebles in your town
Instead of: have you not beadles in your town

7:54
You read: Wouldst have thee rescue me from this reproach?
Instead of: Wouldst have me rescue thee from this reproach?

Act 3
0:15
You read: thou shall not see me blush
Nor change my countenance for such an arrest:
Instead of: thou shalt not see me blush
Nor change my countenance for this arrest:

Otherwise, a great reading.

Cheers

Algy

Richard Plantagenet the younger (section 40) has been orphaned.

For any male reader who wants to play a truly bloodthirsty role, here is your chance.

If you think I can give Richard Plantagenet the younger a voice that is different from Lord Buckingham's, I could give it a try.

Thanks Lars

As a South Pacific colonial who attempts to affect a variety of voices, who am I to deny another reader the same privilege? The role of the youthful Plantagenet in Parts 2 and 3 is yours. Please make him as rapid and impetuous as you can. The utterances of the older Plantagenet, fierce though they are, should sound dignified and restrained when compared to the hot-blooded outbursts of the future Richard III. This is one role you can't overcook. Enjoy yourself!

Cheers

Algy

I've taken a stab at the Clifford readings. If I've mispronounced the French at the end please let me know - I took my best guess as to how that would be pronounced but I expect I could be wildly off.

If there are any lines you'd like me to try again, let me know.

OK Algy,

Here is Richard Plantagenet the Younger (section 40):

http://upload.librivox.org/share/uploads/ek/henryvipart2_richarplantagenetyounger_5.mp3

(Time: 02:13)

I hope this can be what you want, a youthful rash man. If you think he should be done/performed in any other way, please tell me, because in part 3 he has 118 Lines (!!!), and that is not (!!) done over a cup of tea in one afternoon, I'll tell you. But I will try to do him justice.
