Hi Sonia!
Quick turnaround indeed, but such a huge chunk missing...

Sorry about that... my text had trouble highlighting a lot of Arete's lines, so I overlooked half a page!

Here it is again:

yes I was wondering how you could overlook such a huge chunk

I actually thought you had cut it out by mistake again

but thanks Linda, now all is PL ok

Only waiting for the Milliner and the final corrections for Amorphus and then we're done

Todd: Act 3 is also ready to be finalized. I see you have been busy

Will try to listen to them all today, but can't promise.

yes and this is the only note I would have to offer

I'll just note it down as reminder for later

> at 3:37: milliner's credit still missing

wow this was really great to listen to. Now it all makes sense

And the 4 different scenes are really well put together. First the children romping about, then Cupid and Mercury, after that Mercury and Echo and finally Amorphus and Co entering the discussion. All parts separately actually create a good plot. Just listening to the parts made it so confusing, so I'm glad I got to listen to the final outcome now.

Perfect beginning so far

looking forward to the next act

and act 2 is PL ok right away. This one was shorter and basically an introduction to some of the protagonists coming later on. Everybody was playing their roles so well

thanks. Will get to Act 4 now...a biggie again.

The shorter Act 3 is now ready if you want them in order.

Thanks, Todd

and Act 4 is also PL ok. The word plays were excellently funny in a way

though I found it highly strange to do such games as pass-times, but listening to them assembled, it was fun after all.

And wow the group speeches are mayhem

good job, Todd !

And I see act 3 is also ready. I will get a Ben Jonson overdose today

will try to finish it still.

this message came a bit late, I was already well on my way into Act 4

which I finished now and it's also PL ok. Larry was really optimally cast in sober Crites' role. He is a great quite counterpoint to all the superficial courtiers and gallants

Excellent job again. And now I finally have a pretty good idea what this was all about. Now looking forward to the finale. But for now I need a break after this marathon.

Shashank & Elijah !!! only waiting for you.

Sonia

hurrah !! thank you, Shashank, better late than never

And the milliner is straight PL ok. A small role, but you dragged out the best from it

Only one small thing, for the voice-credit we usually say "read by" not "played by" since technically we are only reading. But no need to correct it this time, Todd already inserted it like this, so it's fine as it is. Only maybe think about it in your next role. I do hope this won't be the last role we are hearing you in.

Thanks !
