Just checking in to let you know that I've got the Narrator for all three acts recorded, and it is now in my editing queue. I'll get them uploaded as soon as I can.

Bertha acts 1, 2, and 3 is PL OK! I'm really looking forward to listening when it all gets edited together!

I just listened to the narrator act 1, sounds great!

I have a couple of questions, not being a terribly experienced DR DPL. I understand that the narrator does not read the "stage directions" that become redundant when somebody reads it (of the kind "lowers his voice" etc). In act 1 there were a couple of things I was wondering whether the narrator should read, so I noted the places and times down:

10:45 - page 21 - In the middle of the stage direction I heard "Robert remains standing. ______ Archie and Bertha.." There was a short silence where the underlined emptiness is, but on page 21 it also says "A short silence" there.

19:57 - page 42 - I didn't hear this direction "Richard shakes his head"

Should these short sentences be in the recording or are they not all that important? I'll update the MW when I hear back (and thank you for your patience with me

)

ETA:
Please include:
19:57 - page 42 - I didn't hear this direction "Richard shakes his head"

Sounds great!!

Hi Kathrine,

Thanks for checking on this - I think the short pause is fine (in lieu of saying "a short pause") but the missing stage direction "Richard shakes his head" should be included. Thanks again for all your great work on this play!

Thank you for clarifying!

Sorry about the missed line in Act 1. I'll add it in.

I think your understanding of the narration is the same that Elizabeth and I have have discussed. If there is something I've recorded that doesn't really need to be there, then the editor has the option of keeping it or deleting it. But, if there is something that I've missed, like a shaking head which we cannot hear, then by all means flag it.

Thanks so much for your careful PL!

Thanks, Larry! Acts 2 and 3 are in the MW, ready for PL.

Narrator act 1:
Now the missing line is in, thank you!
Another question, though (sorry I didn't think of it before): should there be "End of Act 1" at the end of the narrator fil for act 1?

Narrator act 2:
Should there be "End of Act 2" at the end of the narrator file? Everything else is good!

Narrator act 3:
10:30 - p. 135 - maybe this line should be in there "Beatrice comes towards her"
Everything else is good!

I'll update the MW later
