Here is section 23 at 16:39:

With all that to say, I'm wondering whether the rest of the play really only takes 18 minutes as mentioned in the beginning... :lol:

Thanks. Of course those timings don't take into account that we're reading all that character and stage description front matter that isn't really necessary at a performance when you can see the stage before you.

Thanks, Todd

Speaking of that....(And I'm aware it's too late, and that I'm basically asking for less work for myself, but) wouldn't it make for a better recording if each character read their own description? (making it easier for the listener to connect the voice to the character)
Truth,

We do have the voices in the cast list - short and separate. But that's no worse than when an Act 5 only character in a big play has their voice credit 4 files back!

Thanks, Todd

Missing two lines in Miss Squeers Tea Party - otherwise your voices go very well together!

Fanny - page 29 - "We are only waiting for one more gentleman"

Narration - need voice credit

PM sent.

Thanks, Todd

LydiaCW can't record any more, so let's see if this play can pass final PL without the missing line added - I think it works okay.
