someone has to play the bad guy ;) anyway, they are often the most interesting parts
Reuploaded file with edit, thanks for catching, this was one of the bigger line files I've worked with!!
yes it was quite a daunting length for one act. You did really well. And thanks for deleting, that will make Todd's job easier. :thumbs:

All definitely PL ok now

urgh...that long "wasters speech" in the middle - what dross this guy is spewing out. Makes one wonder about the author of this play :lol: you're playing his rage and exasperation excellently though, Josh, kudos :thumbs:

a few notes though:

> at 3:00-3:05: (p. 30) "I cannot save Guy at the sacrifice" -this could get cut, it's repeated later on

> at 7:03: (p. 32) "but I never dared to speak of it" - you say "to it" which doesn't really make sense here

> at about 8:23: (p. 33) missing line: "Yes."

thanks

Wow. Act 1 assembly completed - not ready for PL yet - and again Wow. Very different from Mrs Pretty and the Premier - this is serious drama. And your voices are great in it.

Thanks, Todd

And, finally, John Dangar's final act...man, he really doesn't do much to earn the girl at the end, does he?

I guess you mean the file name with the number 3 though.... will PL soon ! thanks. And I agree, it's a bit incomprehensible why Baby would love this bloke so much. :roll: But on the other hand, I didn't like Baby's character too much either. :lol: One could say, they deserve each other.

John Dangar Act 2 is PL ok now.

Now we're only waiting for TJ to finalize the play (I feel like déjà-vu here :lol: )

And a brilliant performance in Act 3 as for John Dangar (even though I thoroughly dislike his behaviour). But you play the anger quite well. I can imagine that this is an exhausting character to play on stage. I wonder if they still run this play nowadays, it's not really PC what they say in there.

All the lines are in, but if you could quickly cut out two repeats, to make it easier on Todd, those would be the following:

> at 0:25: (p. 35) repeat: "they're not coming" - is there one version you prefer ?

> at 6:42: (p. 44) repeat: "out of my" - can be cut

thanks, Josh, great job. Was this you first major role ? Well, there is no holding you back for more.

I have to be out of touch for a few days. I'll finish this up when I return.

Thanks, Todd

omg! How and when did that happen? :shock: I‘ve been uploading files daily and I didn‘t notice that I was the last one again. Serious déjà-vu! I‘ll get the file edited ASAP! :oops:
