I already laughed at the voice credit.

And then the sing-song in the beginning was a funny touch. One can't take this story too serious.

Excellent job, Adrian, both acts PL ok. Act 2 is Act 3 though, but that doesn't matter, I'll put it in the correct slot in the MW.

Thank you !!

Todd: Acts 1 and 3 are ready for final editing then. Only missing one voice credit for Act 1.

I have PM'd our last reader. They still have a couple weeks left on their claim.

Thanks, Todd

Acts 1 and 3 ready for final PL. (Voice credit missing in Act 1 for the last reader part.)

You all sound great. Sorry that - well, I won't spoil it.

Interesting that in The Childe Hath Found His Father we have Merlin with a Red Dragon fighting, but here Merlin beholds a Red Cow....

Thanks, Todd

No, don't be worried. You know how it ends, having PL'd about 1200 voice parts in the play through Act 3 already.

Thanks, Todd

finally got around to listen to both acts and they are a hoot

I love it that we are all camping it up quite a bit and not taking it too serious, I think this is exactly how it should have been played.

Great job all of you, and excellently edited, Todd.

except for the missing voice credit at 18:08 in Act 1, both Acts are PL ok.

Thanks for the laughs !

We have an orphaned role.

Thanks, Todd

I know it's not good to record before claiming, but I was able to do the Follower right away so you can wrap things up here:

thanks for the fast turn-around, Tomas. And you're an excellent follower, I love the accent

Oh and the camped-up dying scene is wonderfully funny too. We all had our moment of glory in our dying scenes it seems

PL ok and that means all the play can get the final polish by our editor-extraordinaire.

thanks

Act 1 is ready for final Spot PL. (Follower's voice credit.)

Thanks, Todd

And Act 2 is ready for final PL as well. What a fun play, and ye all sound great in it!

Thanks, Todd

How we were all able to keep a straight face while saying this nonsense is a mystery to me now that I listened to this act. Especially the first scene with Huncamunca and Grizzle is so over-the-top, they sound romantic while actually what they are saying is kinda below the belt (especially Grizzle)

I had to giggle at many parts here.

Guys, you all showed your comedic talent in this one !

Perfectly assembled too, Todd ! Yes, wonderfully entertaining and absolutely PL ok. (also act 1)

That means, we can draw the curtain on Tom Thumb and get it to the catalogue.

Thank you all

Sonia
