I've taken greater care to make sure I got all the lines in this one. I will get the other Acts edited directly.

excellent Larry, thank you so much. Now this was really a feat. In Pinero's plays the narrator has more lines to say than the main character it seems.

I love your conveying the appropriate mood each time, my favourite here was dignity with which you were saying "Earl of Drumdurris with dignity"

There are a couple of notes still, but on the whole you didn't miss much. Wonderful job.

> at about 0:42: missing line: "Dowager, in a flutter"

> at 10:00: Kneeling, he opens the box - you say "she" but he should open the box

Thank you again. Can't wait to hear this play assembled.

Ah, okay on the intro. I'll and that. I tried to go back and get all those missing pieces inserted, but obviously I missed one. I had a problem with Mr Lebanon. Every time I read it as MRS. So I missed the pronoun. We'll have this done soon. For now, off to work.

Chris will be pleased to hear that

It's probably those silk neckerchiefs and overdoing on the perfume...

And you're in good company, we ALL have a problem with Mr Lebanon. (apart from Mrs Gaylustre, for obvious reasons)

It sounds as though these ignorant wee Sassenachs are casting aspersions on Joe Lebanon’s kilt.

Question: “What is worn under the kilt?”

Answer: “Nothing is worn; it’s all in perfect working order.”

“We ALL have a problem with Mr Lebanon. (apart from Mrs Gaylustre, for obvious reasons)”

I wasn’t particularly close to my Sis’s late husband before he died… which was lucky, because he trod on a land mine.

I completely forgot about the kilt ! Now how can I get this picture out of my head again before I fall asleep tonight ?

The Dowager is in a flutter

Here are the Stage Directions for Act II of the Cabinet Maker, uh, or is it the Cabinet Master. I forget now, but here you go:

I've added the intro, and the two corrections for Spot PL are at about 1:01 and 10:23

I was starting on Act III last night when my computer crashed. Seriously need an upgrade in operating capacity, or maybe Windows just can't handle.

Anyway, I'll jump back and pick up Act I revisions before moving on.

And so I have just completed assembling Act 2 (except for our missing MacPhails, not yet submitted). I haven't listened to it all - I only listen to the ends and beginnings of the lines as I assemble the pieces - but your voices are wonderful together on this. Terrific job!

Thanks, Todd

Okay, I think I'v added all of the missing elements to the stage directions in Act I

https://librivox.org/uploads/toddhw/cabinetminister_stagedirections_1.mp3

Here are your PL Notes, Sonia, with NEW time stamps to help, I hope.

======

> at about 4:29:
"Valentine White, mimicking Brooke"
"Valentine White, in horror"

> at about 5:15: "Lady Euphemia Vibart, indifferently"

> at about 6:22: "Lady Euphemia Vibart, reproachfully"

> at about 9:06: "Imogen, with dignity"

> at 9:45: "Mrs Gaylustre, to Lady Twombley, with a little sob" - you forgot to mention "with a little sob"

> at about 9:58: "Sir Julian Twombley, mournfully"

> at about 13:24: "Macphail, sadly"

> at about 14:06 "Sir Julian in evening dress, enters with a letter in his hand"

> at 15:32: "Mrs Gaylustre, producing Lady Twombley's letter to Brooke" - you forgot to say "Mrs Gaylustre"

> at 16:03: "Sir Julian Twombley, to Lady Twombley, reproachfully" - you omitted "reproachfully"

thank you so much for these new time stamps Larry !

They save me a great deal of time to find back the place which needs Spot PLing.

Everything is in now and no more errors. Act 1 PL ok. This is especially helpful because now Act 1 can be totally FINALIZED (I'm screaming so that Todd is hearing me from the pirate cabin

)

Thanks !

Todd, if Killer Kitty still wants a different nickname, I suggest “Sweet Terror”.

“Sonia (really very nice, honestly)”

Of course.

We only kid her because she’s sweet, and such a good sport.
