haha, what's with this guy, constantly falling asleep. :lol: The typical bumbling servant of Molière's plays. Excellently done, Stefan, I liked the bit of languishing tone in your voice. He does sound a bit sleepy all the time (and not too bright :mrgreen: ) Well done and all PL ok.

Thanks !

thank you, Bhavya and Leanne for taking the remaining female roles. Wow, only Narrator and poor George Dandin left. This was a quick turnaround. 8-)

do you think flattery will get you anywhere ? :|

Well....after having listened to your part, I must say: we're officially the In-Laws-From-Hell :shock: seriously, I pity poor George :lol: Monsieur is just as nasty as Madame. Those two really deserve each other. LOL

I especially loved the scene where he tells him how to apologize, ouch, this will be soooo humiliating. And your threatening "Ah"s are really conveying the right meaning. :thumbs:

Acts 2 and 3 are already PL ok.

I found a tiny difference in Act 1. In retrospect, maybe it's optional after all, but when I listened it struck me as strange:

> at 2:48: "no matter whom" - you say "no matter what". In this case he means that he keeps a tight hold over anybody, so "what" doesn't really make sense :hmm: but now on second thoughts you probably meant it more generally, so I understand where this "no matter what" comes from. Up to you if you want to change it

The rest is a perfect depiction of nastiness.

awww, Clitandre is such a hypocrite :lol: the initial scene with Sotenville and Dandin is priceless. Your overdone sincerity tells everyone that he's lying through his teeth. :mrgreen: Well done, Tomas, perfect performance again. And all PL ok. :clap:

I would play George, although I am a little intimidated, if you let me. As you know I am fairly new but I would do my very best.

hey cool ! believe me, "intimidated" is not a bad thing for this role :mrgreen: I predict, this feeling will increase even more when you start talking (or rather being talked down by) your in-laws in this play :lol: George has a hard lot here. It's actually brave of you to tackle the role.

thanks for making us fully claimed. Have fun ! And the same "rules" as with Psyche apply, leave enough pause between quotes, don't forget the voice credit (as stated in the MW) and basically: let loose 8-)

And remember, it is your mother-in-law that gives you trouble. I, your father-in-law, only wish to set you straight on a few things....

Thanks, M de S (aka Todd)
