wow thank you for the praise I'm happy to have been part of this with such an interesting role (although she is not at all me LOL, but that's why it's called acting I guess )

I'm on my phone right now, so I have limited access to the MW. I'll move everything when I have wifi again.
no problem, I move them down for you

good night for now

BWAHAHAHAHA!! As someone who really only excels as reading for jerks and scumbags, I perfectly understand!

(Speaking of which, I might claim Eric in a little while... he's another certified jerkwad, so he should be perfect for me. That would leave us with only two more male roles to fill, which would certainly be an envious position to be in.)

For those curious about the amount of Italian spoken by Blanche Negress and Marchessa Pitti-Conti, here's their entire exchange. If desired, I'm sure we could concoct a quick recording of all those lines so they can be spoken phonetically.

I'll add this image to the MW, in case anyone needs to use this to determine whether or not they want to volunteer.

May I read Nadine? If so, is the Sheil pronounced like "She'll" or more like "shell"?

That would be wonderful, Kristin.

Thank you so much!

As for the pronunciation... I'll be honest, I haven't the slightest clue! I've been saying "shell" in my head, if that helps, but I'm by no means certain if that's right.

actually half of this text is French and half Italian. If anybody is interested in a soundfile, I can make one.

Hahahaha! Is it obvious that I'm drearily monolingual?

I'd be more than happy to posting the sound file in the MW, if you decide to make one. Thank you again.

Both Acts PL ok.
