Thanks, Todd

I think for my own personal safety I need to disown most of the sentiments expressed by this character. I did not really choose this part, Chris said he thought it would suit me

ah don't worry, Alan, I actually didn't find Gregory too horrible. Yes, he has an antipathy (or should I say trauma ?) against widows

but this comes from his troubled history, seeing so many premiers fail because of them. He is a sort of motherhen for them and cares a lot, that explains his reaction. And when you get to Act 3 you'll see, Gregory and Widow Pretty get along well and become partners in crime

he is fully redeemed by the end of the play.

You did play the character excellently. A sort of disillusioned man throughout, nicely conveyed. Now looking forward to his subtle change of mind in act 3.

PL ok. Perfect job. Thank you

Sonia

Grumpy Old Misogynist - act 3

I actually found him quite endearing somehow (in a grumpy sort of way). Think Walter Matthau...

Totally PL ok in any case, and for what it's worth, I totally liked the performance and I think our dialogue will sound cool together.

Todd: that means, Act 3 is ready to finish up

This time I will be listening to the play in reverse order.

Thanks, Alan

I totally agree. We all sound like we really rehearsed and practiced in the same room.

A wonderful ending, and I can't wait to listen to the rest of the play. Todd, excellent assembling, I agree with all the cuttings. This is PL ok, straight-away.
