*does a backwards somersault*
Thanks Philip! I'm so glad we finally fleshed out the cast! So, so great!
And I'm happy to see someone else is excited about doing more Baillie plays. After this one is finished, I think I'm probably going to launch either The Dream or De Monfort. I've also got my eye on Witchcraft, but I honestly haven't read it yet.
Anyway, happy to see we're nearing the end of this project.

Back after 8/15. In the hands of the medicos.
ok, ok I got it, I had the word wrong. Sorry, I didn't think that there was a difference between a backwards somersault and a somersault backwards (I could play the non-native card once again as excuse...)ToddHW wrote:Would that be a tluasremos?

But at least it gave us all a good laugh

You realise of course, Todd and Sonia, that you’ve really got a George Burns and Gracie Allen thing going these days.
Champagne comedy!

excellent job, Philip Hartman strikes me as a really upstanding and steady friend in need. You play him with a sort of melancholy and voice of reason somehow, but still he does what needs to be done. Great characterization.DrPGould wrote:Here is Hartman (Durations 1: 2:34; 2: 1;13; 5: 4:01)
Acts 1 & 2 are already PL ok. Although you missed to say "read by Philip Gould" in the voice credits in Act 1, but I'll make a note for Chuck, in Act 2 you said it correctly.
Here are a couple of notes for Act 5 though:
> at about 0:23: (p. 86 bottom) missing lines, spoken to Eleonora “Countess, your presence much emboldens me to think it so shall be.”
> at 1:35: (p. 87 bottom): could you leave a bit more space to make it easier to insert the stage direction [turning again to Hughobert] here ?
thank you for joining the play
Sonia
Here is the corrected Hartman from Act 5.

You should feel honored - if you are George. Gracie was, well, a bit addle-headed would be kind... They were a comedy team long before Carry On ever appeared on the scene. In fact, I have only ever seen them in reruns myself so that tells you how long ago they were! (They just miss having some of their earliest stuff PD.)Kitty wrote: ↑January 31st, 2018, 1:01 amsince I don't know those guys I don't know how I should feel about this comment nowSonOfTheExiles wrote: ↑January 31st, 2018, 12:59 am You realise of course, Todd and Sonia, that you’ve really got a George Burns and Gracie Allen thing going these days.

The Burns and Allen radio shows are to be found in many places on the internet and in archive.org.
Gracie ran for President of the United States in 1940: https://www.google.com.au/amp/s/georgegracie.wordpress.com/2009/04/02/gracie-for-president-1940/amp/
“When Ken Murray on The Texaco Star Theatre asked with which party Gracie was affiliated, she heartily retorted, “I may take a drink now and then, but I never get affiliated.””

after having listened to Chris's example, I refuse to be compared to Gracie Can't even listen to her for two minutes. *shudders*
I need to rethink my image here

“I need to rethink my image here.”
The recent throttling of poor Joe Lebanon wasn’t enough, Killer Kitty?
I don’t know where you go from there, as far as “bringing the pain” to my characters goes.
Though I have a horrible suspicion that Todd is even now riffling through his plays collection, looking for an instance of a pirate-queen making someone who displeased her walk the plank into a shark-infested ocean.
Thank goodness Xena, Warrior Princess isn’t PD yet.
