Simo recorded, must edit. Boy this script is hard to follow! Hope I can edit successfully from it.

Thanks, Todd

Stage directions and prologue coming up ... and ready for PL. The Subject and The Acrostic Argument omitted because of spoilers.

Oh and I managed to get my tongue around Polymachaeroplagides...but honestly, Heautontimoroumenos was easier (yes, I still know it by heart)

Thank you. I agree with omitting those sections.

Simo is PL ok

at first I thought he would be an old dottering man again (you excel in those

) but actually he is quite witty and in the end even very sparkling. Nicely done, a very interesting character.

Thank you

"quite witty and in the end even very sparkling"

Woohoo! The old dottering man has changed his stripes!

Thanks, Todd

super job, Michael

thank you so much. All acts can be marked PL ok. Nice reading, and I especially loved this prologue, which you manage with a certain dry wit, which has a nice appeal to listen to.

I only have a few small remarks, but nothing you need to correct at this point:

for act 1:

> at 1:31: Phoenicium can get cut out because she doesn't have a speaking role
> at 1:37: "Slaves of Ballio" - actually the correct voice credit should be "a slave of Ballio, read by". I'll take care the reader does the full credit, so it's not necessary to include it for now. Since there are no other important errors, no need to reupload

for act 4:
> at about 0:50 and at about 2:42: (p. 299 & 303) twice missed "laughing" - ok I guess my Simia's laugh at this point was clear enough, but usually it's best to include it all, sometimes we need even such stage directions to make things clear for the listeners. Better err on the side of caution and let Todd decide in the end. But again, I think there is no need to reupload this time.

thank you

Sonia

I can take the Boy from act 3

Also I think the slave only has one line in act 1. I can do that too if you like

Post by **ToddHW** » April 23rd, 2020, 8:22 am

Thank you. And now we are full.

excellent Tomas, another pining lover

you are marvellous in those roles

(lots of practice I guess)

Both sections straight PL ok. Strange he had only a short stage presence in the second act

Thank you
