wow and excellent 3rd act. Gretchen is a bit too meek and pious for her own good. It's never really clear what her horrible crime is that she thinks she should chastise herself so much
Anyway...I loved the pain and anguish you put in your voice.
Act 2 is now PL ok.
Two small notes for Act 3 though:
> at 5:10: (p. 188) "God pardon thee" – you say "me" – Gretchen of course would plead more for Faustus than for herself, such is her character
> at 6:42: (p. 192) "oh, uproot the weed" – you say "upright", it's a bit of a different image, uproot sounds stronger and darker, more in line with Gretchen's disturbed mind

I wish I had more of a glimpse into what was going on with her but am going to assume it must be something scandalous for her to act in such a way!
I think she doesn't need much. I suppose here it was that she took him from his holy vows, regardless of Faustus assuring her that he didn't take them very seriously
Excellent corrections and PL ok now. A lovely Gretchen, thank you, Jenn ! Now for the dying scene...prepare your handkerchiefs.
*sob* this scene is getting to me and you played it all very emotionally. I think there will be no dry eye in the house. Excellently done, no lines missed, all PL ok.
A wonderful performance, thank you so much, Jenn !
