wonderful, Chris, thank you so much. Hephaestion is a stern, dutiful soldier, perfectly characterized. But you also managed to bring Racine's solemnity into his lines.

Great job.

Act 3 is already PL ok.

I have one note for Act 5 though:

> at 0:13: (p. 116) "Porus, though vanquished" – you say "vanished"

thanks !

and Act 1 is a great opening for this play and totally PL ok

I think I need a break now. After Don Juan, Princess of Elis, Pyrrhus and now Alexander, I think I have a bit of an overdose in classical theatre for today

The next acts will follow tomorrow...

and acts 3 and 4 are also PL ok. I really loved Axiana's passion. Racine has a knack for great heroines.

Thank you

now waiting for one final role...

excellent and both PL ok. I must quote a sentence here: "After so many sighs, what may he hope ?" - I think you said this one so mangificently, with so much feeling.

great job.

Todd: all is ready for final assembling. Speaking of which...I see Acts 3 and 4 with a link, no mention of "draft" but still the status is not "ready for PL" yet. Is this an oversight, can I PL ? Or do you need to edit in still more ?

Sorry. Marked Ready for PL now. I must have too many plays running for my aged brain to keep straight. (I did post in Sweethearts this weekend that I had recorded Wedderburn for Sweet Lavender.... I deleted it hopefully before you saw it.)

Thanks, Todd

All done. Ready for final PL.

Wonderful voices, all of you. Thank you for participating!

totally agree. I just listened to 4 acts in a row and it's a really great play, with big emotions running high

Everybody sounds great.

And the 4 acts are all PL ok, craftily assembled. Off to the catalogue we can go

Thanks again, Todd, for catering for my Racine-whim.
