Stage directions for acts 2 and 3 in the MW. These are confusing! I added some character names where it was unclear who was saying something or to whom.

I do know that some of the directions will get deleted in editing where they will end up not being necessary.

Thanks, Todd

Hi Tchaikovsky! Nicely done! What a shame that Don Charmante can't join us for the final Act...

Both Acts are PL OK as far as the text itself, just one small edit required:

For your voice credit, please include full character description as it appears in the MW. In this case: "Don Charmante, Nephew to the Vice-Roy, and Lover of Bellemante". And since you'll be reuploading the file anyway, you may wish to fix a typo in the Act 1 filename: you have "doncharmonte" rather than "doncharmante". Filename issues aren't the end of the world when it comes to dramatic works, but it's something worth keeping an eye on.

Thanks again!

Todd - hang tight for PL on the Stage Directions. I'm hoping to get to them this evening, but they may have to wait until tomorrow.

These are complicated stage directions are to be sure...suitable for the insanity of the play, I suppose. I only caught a couple of small things:

Act 2:

~11:07 - Missing "Doctor Enters"

Act 3:

~4:41 - Missing "Aside" (Scaramouch)

Otherwise all is well!

Harlequin has quite a lot to say in this act, but I really enjoyed recording this role :D

Thanks Tchaikovsky - PL OK! :thumbs:

Todd - I also double checked the stage directions, which are now PL OK as well :D

Thank you.

(If you wish, when you mark something PL OK in one of my plays, you can drag that section down into the set of PL OK parts for each act. Order is unimportant - it just collects everything by act for when I edit and it keeps the top of the MW with only open and assigned roles.)

Thanks, Todd
