Here is the orange girl:

Apologies for the delay. Although, I'm glad that I didn't record right away, because I wouldn't have been looking for the crowd lines. There certainly are a lot of them! I don't envy you the task of stitching this one together!

Lise and Claire will be forthcoming. This one took longer than I'd expected.

Thank you. Don’t worry about the delay; we won’t be breaking any speed records with this one. I’ve already begun compiling Acts 1 and 2 with placeholders for the missing parts. It will be a challenge getting every line covered, but I’m confident in time it will happen

Hey Mike,
this is the new Dramatis personae intro along with the act intros. it times at 3:47. I redid them all although the 4 and 5 uploads are correct, I think.
This should do it for the stage directions, but let me know if I missed anything. It was fun, particularly act 5.

Thank you so much! I've been listening to your narration as I start to put together Acts 1 and 2 and it sounds wonderful. I'll let you know if I need anything else from you.

Here is Ragueneau, Acts 2 -5. I loved having a poem about making almond tarts to declaim!

Lengths 9:08, 1:04, 1:47, and 3:16 respectively.

Thanks, Todd

(By the way, you going to have the Introduction read? It is very interesting....)

Thanks, Todd. Ragueneau is such a fun character; I'm glad you enjoyed reading him. As for the introduction, it does give some interesting information about the history of the play and this translation, but it's so lengthy, and the play itself is long enough! My thought was to omit it, but if there's reasons why it should be included, there's still time to have it read.

It looked like you were having the Dramatis Personae as a separate section so I wondered if the Intro was going to be with it. But we link to the etext so anyone that wants to can find the intro anyway.

Thanks, Todd

Mike,
If you’d like, I can read the intro, upload it, and you can decide whether or not to use it.

Trish,

If you would like to, that would be fine with me. We can append it to the Dramatis Personae file. I'm sure you can handle the French quotes.
