wonderful job, Foon.
You made my job easy by being very meticulously, and the text wasn't easy to plod through. I only found two small missing parts, both "asides" which need the character name. On the whole you managed quite well to fish out those that needed it
Act 2 is already
PL ok. Although the volume is a bit low, but I will make a mention of that in the MW, nothing to change here.
Notes for Act 1:

at 10:47: "
Young Bookwit, pressingly" – this should come at the beginning of the speech, so we need to include the name

Question for Todd: did you want the very short intro about the history of the play included ? Foon has read it now, but I think you didn't mention that. Well, now you can choose. It is interesting, one could well leave it in
Notes for Act 3:
> the
volume is also
a bit low here

at 2:04: "
Penelope, aside" - also here, name needs to be included. I hope I pointed out the correct "aside" since there are about a dozen following each other at that point
thanks !

Note to Todd:
I found another character named "Chair" in Act 3. I think he is a sort of servant. As "Chair" he only has one single line, but a few lines later Young Bookwit orders his "orchestra" to sing to his directions, and there is a professional singer Mr Leveridge who sings the song. Maybe the Chairman could be speaking these lines as well, since he should belong to the orchestra, if I understood that correctly. That way we don't need a separate Mr Leveridge. edit: I noticed this Mr Leveridge also sings a song right at the end in Act 5. That way, the role of Chair could be fairly big.
