Thank you, Phil! I enjoyed your characterization of Thomas very much! Great job on a tough role!

Act 1 PL ok.

In act 2, at about 5:01, you are missing a line:

James. The name is not an oncommon one. There's Mattie Kent?
Tho. Nay; it's noan o' her.
James. Then there's Mattie Winchfield?
Tho. Nay; it's noan o' her.

Since it's the same sentence repeated, I could simply use the same line twice, but I'd prefer a different tone on the second one, to make the interaction feel more genuine.

Act 4, about 1:05, two missing lines:

"Theer be nobory theer, sir. Th' maister's run eawt, and th' mon after him."
-and-
"Aw niver says what aw donnot mane. An' aw'm glad yo're theer, sir; for William he towd mo to stay till he coom back; but aw've not geet so mich time to spare; and so be's yo're a friend ov th' maister's, yo'll mebbe mind th' shop a smo' bit. Aw mun goo."

Thomas Acts 2 & 4 corrected and uploaded!

I must admit I read this without reading the play. Thomas basically seems to have one line - I want mo Mattie! - that he repeats over and over again! Looking forward to hearing the whole play!

I'm still hearing the original version, sans corrections. I cleared my history and tried again on a different device, just to be sure.

Apologies! I think the uploading didn't complete. I'll do it again tonight.

I would love to assign you this role, if we had a Servant in the play! The only roles left are for four unruly boys. Did you perhaps mean to post in a different project?

I'm going to go ahead and combine the roles of Fourth and Second Boy again after all, since there have been no claims in the last month.

Oh, sorry... I apologize...

I meant I would like to claim the fourth boy. The servant is indeed in another play.

Ok, great! Originally I'd planned to combine the Second and Fourth Boys into one role, then decided to separate them out again. But over the last day or so, I'd pretty much decided again to combine them, since it had been a month without claims. Would you mind doing this combined role? It looks like it would be about seven lines for both roles together, plus the taunt spoken by all the boys together.

Oh, no problem... It will be my pleasure!
