yay, thank you Kristin :) Sharper is quite the schemer here, well done. I love the overall nonchalance you put into the role, as if nothing really affects him. :thumbs: Well done.

Acts 1-4 already PL ok.

One small note for Act 5 though:

> at 0:41: "this letter, that so sticks in thy maw, is counterfeit" - you say "my maw"

thank you

I redid the whole line because I didn't like the edit, but now all should be well!

and thanks Elijah :) nice to have you in here as well. I guess you were relieved that these roles were much easier than in the Jonson play :mrgreen:

Everything can be marked PL ok straight away. :clap: Nice job. The volume is a bit low in them all, but Todd will adjust that anyway.

There was a small difference in Music-master Act 2, but I think your version can make sense too, so I'll pass it :) Just for info, in case you want to be wordperfect:

> at 0:36: "wakes 'em from the golden dream" - you say "walks them". He is waking them up from the dream, but walking them away from their dream kinda conveys the same, so this is ok for me. It's even more poetic in a way.

Thanks

Thank you, Sonia! I'll probably edit that line then. :D

Umm... once again, I cannot find any lines of her, only a single one in the very last scene:

SYLV. The worst of me is, that I am your wife—

Could you confirm that please?
Cheers, Ava.

no, she has a lot more. Check for "Silv." I think, it's only once at the end where she is spelled "Sylv."

True! I only checked Sylvia, since this is how it's spelled in the Dramatis Personae.

I wanted to record this tonight, but there are ahem... lovesick cats roaming outside. I don't think this is conducive to my recording. :lol:

:mrgreen: it would add steam to Sylvia. She seems not adverse to love herself. Well there is still time...the cats have to sleep at some point :shock:
