awww :oops: thank you Captain
So listen up you other scurvy dogs
:lol: you know how to make people work for you

So you listened to it all already ? Ok with the Cast list in the introduction ? :hmm:

Yes, I listened to it all the way through (and enjoyed it tremendously).

I think the Cast List at the end of the Intro Section is the right thing to do. And I'm still thinking on the Betsy Prologue; currently thinking it needs to be there but could be said by author as the beginning of the intro text. Not the narrator voice.

Thanks, Todd

yes, that was another option I considered, but didn't want to put extra work to you :oops: But you are right, this whole intro could be seen as author's musings over the preparation of his play.

“DO NOT SING!”

Are you trying to hint something, Todd? :lol:

Well, there goes the “Birds Eye Fish Fingers” commercial spot.

who was twisting your arm, Devorah ? Tell me and I make him walk the plank. It was Chris wasn't it ? :twisted:

Meanwhile I sign you up before you come to your senses. :mrgreen:

And please, important: do NOT record the intro section for Betsy. The captain and I are still considering to keep this for the narration. Acts 1, 2 and 3 are ready for you to record though.

:shock: that was you ? Interesting...

I think you'll be great as Old Meg, Linda :9: and you can gobble up all the remaining grog you may sniff out in the props.

Thanks, I'll sign you up.

Todd, I think your pirate play has quite some success. You must have touched the inner pirate in us all.

going to bed now...but not before uploading Narration Act 2. Much shorter than Act 1, but just as funny.

Ah, another perfect PL OK reading. There is devilry afoot here, treachery, and maybe even romance. What a story! I wonder if this guy wrote any more plays? Or even any other books?

Thanks, Todd

Hmm, I hear that a certain Luxembourg Lady known to Sonia is quite an artillery afficionado, and fully conversant with Cannon Law.

You might like to try and curry favour with her, Todd, but beware! Curry is a spicy dish.

Yes, enough of that freaky Luxembourg absinthe that “Psychodelic Psonia” has been passing around the troupe of late. :mrgreen:
