ah I thought the colonel was lovely portrayed. Somehow jovial, especially in the billiard scene (gotta love the laughs - you know I have a soft spot for that) but I also enjoyed it later when they were more serious about the duel. :thumbs: Absolutely perfectly PL ok, thank you Todd !

I have included 2 voice credits to give you a choice
oh wow, excellent performance Alan. I always find that playing a stutter is one of the most difficult parts in a speech, you did it perfectly. :shock: St. Roche is a strange mix of eternal boy and righteously outraged :lol: it was nicely conveyed throughout the act. :thumbs:

There is only one part to be cut out:

> at 3:04: (p. 75) "Toys" - this is Sir George speaking, can be cut

Todd: I noticed now from how they react and speak that this act is at the house of St. Roche, so the English-speaking servant is St. Roche's servant...I am changing the voice credit in the MW, luckily the part has not been claimed/recorded yet.

St Roche act 2 revised

https://librivox.org/uploads/toddhw/princessandthebutterfly_stroche_2.mp3

I did not mean to play him as a man with a stutter but more as a man who was so timid that he was really hesitant about everything he said, particularly when talking to his wife :lol:

I have recorded all five acts for Sir George Lamorant. As you may have noticed with other projects I usually post ALL acts at once. However, I have only completed editing Acts One & Two. due to much work-related travel lately. I thought if I posted these two it would get them into the pipeline, which hopefully will help reduce the backlog a bit. I hope to have the remaining three acts edited this week.

Act One - https://librivox.org/uploads/toddhw/princessandthebutterfly_sirgeorge_1.mp3

Act Two - https://librivox.org/uploads/toddhw/princessandthebutterfly_sirgeorge_2.mp3

Take care and stay safe!

:lol: Ord is not the sharpest knife in the drawer, methinks. But in a state of constant happiness, which is probably exciting for him, and annoying for all the others :mrgreen: excellently portrayed, Jim, thanks !

You only forgot one ALL line:

> at about 0:49: (p. 83) please insert: "No, no !"

ah yes, this was a perfect casting for you, Tomas. You especially nailed the "I love you" three times :thumbs: this is exactly what the Princess was hoping for. Highly enjoyed the performance, and it's totally PL ok. Thank you
