(If you want a pronunciation guide, I recommend you listen to this role - Kitty has it perfect I am sure!)

Thanks, Todd

Thanks, I'll do that!

Madame de Valcour is PL OK for all acts now. I look forward to hearing the rest of the play that fits around her part!

Thanks, Todd

Gabriella's part is recorded for all acts. I should be able to have them edited in a couple of days.

Hi, I'd love to claim a female role! Perhaps Mariette, or any other you think would suit

sorry, I must have missed the uploads yesterday

I only saw them just know when I checked for Gabrielle's parts.

I don't think I have ever heard you play the role of an abbé, Todd.

But you play this personage quite adroitly with a mixture of dignity but also a bit of underlying amusement at some things he has to hear and see. It's quite a nice change to have a "nice" abbé instead of always the stereotyped greedy or lusty ones.

All three Acts PL ok. Bravo

thank you so much for joining this play Devorah

You have such a sweet young voice that is absolutely fitting for Gabrielle. You portray her exactly as I would have pictured her: sweet, with an almost childlike innocence, trust and gratitude. I already well envisage our dialogue together in those two acts and it's so perfect that you sound so much younger than me, which really works well with our two characters. (I fear Tomas will sound like a barracuda preying on an innocent young mackerel

)

Also, no errors and nothing missing, so these two acts are perfectly PL ok.

Only one small caution: take care to always leave at least 2 to 3 seconds of editing space between your quotes. These pauses are all fine as far as I can see, but some had a tendency to be a tad short with only a bit over one second. It's easier for our editor to copy and paste the lines when there is really enough space around them.

Looking forward to the rest.

I'm glad you found your way to the Drama Forum, you're a great addition to our troupe.

Hello, I have looked through the entire play and could not find any lines by Mariette in Acts 2 or 3. She only appears in the first four pages of the play, I believe?

hm I just checked and it seems you're right. While she is mentioned in Acts 2 and 5, she actually does not have any speaking lines.

edit: she does have one line in Acts 2 and 3 (see post below)

Ah, Leanne ! Wait, I found another line for Mariette in Act 3, page 527

And in Act 2 she speaks on page 484
