Act 1 needs to be re-recorded, for some reason my microphone acted up and the sound got corrupted mid-way :evil:

All 3 acts are perfect. I particularly love the way in Act 1 you go from haughtiness, snipping about everything, and then transforming to the tearful supplicant of a favor. And emotional still in Act 3. Finally to a more refined, sadder but wiser, woman of the world character in act 5.

PL OK.

Thanks, Todd

I was afraid I would sound a bit too cynical in the epilogue. I'm glad you like it though. Coppy doesn't seem to have done her much good either.

Thanks for the fast PL :9:

:lol: great pun :thumbs:

And Perry is such a likeable character, no wonder he gets the girl in the end. Even though he was the only one not wooing her openly, but maybe that's his charm. Excellently played, Todd, I really enjoyed it. Especially the scene where they arrange the photo session.

Thanks, all three acts PL ok.

another great job, Jenn :thumbs: Now in the first act we see Letty still a bit frivolous, but already sickly. It's a big difference to the final act. Looking forward to hearing her change with every act. A great character study, excellently done.

PL ok, thank you

Mandeville act 2

I hope this is ok. My voice sounds terribly scratchy and breathless. I hope I don't have to do it all again.

have you posted double or is the second post about act 3 ? :hmm:

I couldn't notice much of a scratchy voice, it sounded ok to me. Anyway, even a scratchy voice would have suited this leering lecher in this scene :lol: He's not the most delightful person of the play. Very well acted out and absolutely PL ok.

Thank you so much, and have a good weekend

He is one of the least pleasant characters I have played but I think he gets his comeuppance in act 3 :lol:

:lol: creep ! But I agree, he's outdone himself in this act to become the most disliked character in this play. You give him a well-fitting sneering snobbish way, Alan. :thumbs: I can't understand how Letty could ever consider throwing herself away on him.

Absolutely PL ok. Thanks

Sonia
