So I'm finally done with finals week and just started back to putting this play together. I have some missing lines from two of the performers in Act I, but should be able to get that first part ready to PL soon.

Now obviously, we never got a PL for this play... much to my chagrin. Trying to manage all of this by myself has been hard. But would anyone mind PL-ing the finished Acts, once I've got them all edited together?

I'm also going to have to split Scenes 1 and 2 up into two separate sound files. I've got Act I about 70% finished and it's almost 70 minutes... so, um, yes... I'll have to break this one up, I'm afraid.

Todd, would you mind recording a sound file that just says "End of Act I Scene 1" and "End of Act I Scene 2?" Hopefully we won't have to do this again for Act III (which is also quite long).

EDIT: Actually, Todd... don't worry about it. I just edited a couple of different sound files together and got what I needed. :-) So you can put the microphone away, for now.

Very nicely read! :-)

Act I, Scene 1 is PL OK... but Scene 2 seems to be missing. Would you mind recording that one as well, when you get the time? Thanks. :-)

I don't know how I missed this during my first PL, but I'm missing one line from you here:

"Mr. Webster?" (when you first meet Hewston and think he's Rollo)

You'll definitely have a PL for the edited files. If someone doesn't volunteer, I'll do it. :)

I won't be able to do anything until next week (next Sunday evening) at the earliest.

Someone’s got to say it.

um... There's a scene TWO???

OK, well, I'd planned on recording Act II, but we'll have to adapt...

(Fortunately, Act II -- both scenes combined -- is shorter than either scene of Act I, so I might have time tomorrow for it)

Considering how beleaguered and overworked poor Hewston is throughout this play, I'm not sure he would be any help. :-)

Haha. You're not the first person to miss the individual sections of each Act. I wish it had been more clearly demarcated in the text.

Thanks for the recordings! I'll start editing Act II right away!

Thanks Tricia. You'll probably get a few audio files soon. :-)

I can PL Act 1, scene 1...as soon as I get another cup of tea.

EDIT: Lovely job on editing. PL ok with one optional note.

25:32 – 26:19 – Goldie’s singing with the underlying music seemed a little too loud to me. You might consider lowering it just a touch.

Linny! Thank you so much! :-) I really appreciate the help.

I should have Act I, Scene 2 finished later tonight. Then we'll have to wait for a couple of extra audio files (including my own... I haven't recorded Act III yet) and I'll post Acts II and III.

I'll also fiddle around with the sound levels when I get back home. Thanks again!

Hi Zames! Sorry to be a pest, but I found a missing line in your Act I, Scene 2 file:

"Well, I'm sure I don't if you don't, sir."

The line can be found here: https://archive.org/stream/rolloswildoatcom00kum#page/54/mode/1up/search/hewston

On the plus side, Act I, Scene 2 is almost complete (I'm only missing your line and one of my own, which I hilariously screwed up) and you sound great. Poor, poor Hewston. :lol:

Haha. Don't fret. Silverquill and I still have lines to record for Act III, so we're still not quite there yet. :-)

Thanks for the file. Now I can upload the next part.
