Thank you, Beth!

Hopefully that means more acts completed once Sonia PLs them!

Act 4 uploaded, only Act 5 to go, but that will have to be after I get home from work, or more likely tomorrow.

I quickly listened to Charlotte's Act 3, and everything was in order there, so I inserted the lines into my draft file and the final act is ready for PL.

Hopefully I can do Act 4 tomorrow, as well.

Acts 2 and 4 are also PL ok. I did not listen to Act 3 again, since I will do that now with the completed act.

I think our dialogue will be very good together Beth LOL Well done on the whole.

Now only Act 5 left for Beth and Jason...I hope Jason is back with his voice soon.

This is my first time editing an entire play, so I hope everything is OK!

everything is SO ok Tomas. Really well assembled together and we sound all so great together

Act 1 can be marked PL ok. It was a pleasure to listen to.

This will probably come down to me. I lost my voice, so I will be out of commission for a few more days. I have had to work the last 3 days and it has wreaked havoc (freelancer, so I can't refuse the work to heal). But I hope to rest for the weekend starting tonight after I am done my conference, and be back to recording early next week.

take care of yourself first Jason. This project can well keep for another week.

Hope all is well soon.

absolutely great performances in this one

the opening scene was so hilariously tongue in cheek. Poor Welldon first had to listen to an obviously dripping sexual account of Jack Stanmore's virile prowess and no sooner was he gone, she needed to listen to Widow Lackitt's no less horny advances

Then what I also loved is the final scene where Imoinda and Oroonoko so bravely defy the governor's schemes and rather would die than be separated. Their final cries are absolutely heroic.

Just singling out two highlights for me, but the entire part in-between was just as well acted out.

I really enjoyed listening to this Act. PL ok.

Charlotte Welldon Act 5, and Epilogue. I wasn't sure if you wanted the final outro read after the epilogue, so you have it here anyway along with 5 seconds of silence at the end.
