back in the saddle and slowly working my way through dozens of PL jobs...

Doing the easy bits first ;) Act 1 (Parts 1 and 2) are now totally PL ok and also Checker-checked. :thumbs: Nothing to change there anymore. It sounds great !

Missing a Sir Francis line in Act 3:
SIR FRANCIS (A little pause. DONNA LUCIA smiles.) Why, what are you
smiling at?
Thanks, Todd

Missing Jack line in Act 3:
CHARLEY. At the last moment, this morning, my aunt--on whose account we
had invited Miss Verdun and Miss Spettigue telegraphed to say she
couldn't come. The ladies arrived and we JACK (helping CHARLEY out). And
I, sir, prevailed upon another person, to--well
This is the worst script I have ever foisted upon you all and I deeply apologize!!

Thanks, Todd

maybe you downloaded an earlier version....I remember this line and Tom reuploaded Act 3 later on with the missing line in it. Try downloading from the MW once again. It should be at 3:43 min.

I can't believe I missed so many...I had my eyes peeled to look hard at the script. :? A pity we couldn't find the archive scan...

Well, a draft of Act 3 is done. Only required a single file - I'm sure everyone was tired by that point of the performance.

I have to chase down the missing lines to complete acts 2 and 3 - including seeing if they were already there in your files and I just missed them.

REGARDLESS OF ALL THESE ISSUES, YOU ALL SOUND WONDERFUL TOGETHER! A GREAT PERFORMANCE! My mother used to sing songs from the Broadway version of this decades ago and it was a delight to put it all together.

Thanks, Todd

well some lines I already pointed out. For the others, did you PM the readers ? If not, I could do that, just to make sure they see the message. Larry is on holidays right now, so you probably need to wait for his lines until he gets back.

I didn't know it was a musical before. I know this play from a German film-version. The guy playing Charley's Aunt was a famous singer and he also sang a lot of songs in the movie.

Todd and Sonia,

Here you go on what (I hope and pray, for your sakes) is the final fix.

Sorry, in the process of moving down South, so didn't see this until today.

Different mic, different location. Hope it fits in.

Todd, I mentioned this line in a previous post:

Didn't you find it ? :hmm:

Thanks to Kitty I have the already recorded Jack line and it is in place. Only waiting on one line from the Colonel when Larry returns.

(Well, I have to groom the Act 2 and Act 3 files still but that will be done shortly - before Larry's return.)

Thanks, Todd
