Do you have a rule about readers taking multiple parts? I have already read Sergeant for acts 2&3, but would like to read Uncle Titus for Act 1. I hear him in my head as a slightly higher pitched Walter Brennan.

That would make the project full.
Thank you! Uncle Titus is all yours. (Alan Mapstone, General Burgoyne, is also doubling as Uncle Walter.) I don't know what Walter Brennan sounds like, but after listening to your splendid Sergeant I have complete confidence in the voices you hear in your head.

Thank you! The Chaplain is PL OK. Splendidly sententious in the opening, and disarmingly human at the end...
And now we have the entire British Army read; I really enjoy the parts severally, and I think they'll go very well together.

Todd, can I change the thread title here from OPEN to FULL, or is that something you need to do? Also, should I be able to remove the blank line (in there because I miscounted the parts when I submitted my MW request :oops: ) which makes it appear that one part is still open,or,if not, would you? Thanks. Sorry.

You can change OPEN to FULL by editing the first post. Also, there is a dropdown on the MW page to change so that the MW knows too - it can't read posts. I'll do these.

There is an X to delete sections that you can't see. So that only I can make the mistake of deleting a section that should not be deleted and then having to reconstruct it....

Thanks, Todd

Thank you very much for fixing this and for letting me know what I could fix next time.

Thank you very much! These are beautifully and vividly read. (And I'll keep your example in mind next time I am trying to scream quietly for a Librivox recording...) Acts 2 and 3 are PL OK. Act 1 is just missing the first two lines in which Essie is simply identified as "The Girl:"
“What is it?”
and
“I didn’t mean to. I dropped off..."

Uncle Titus is a hoot, and is also PL OK. Thank you very much!

Thanks, Todd! All three acts are PL OK and splendidly Christy-like. (Also it's very nice for me to have Christy in at a pitch where I can sound somewhat plausibly like his brother...) I suppose this is as good a time as any to apologize for the rude things I say to and about you throughout the play...
