Here you go! I took a gamble and recorded them all in one sitting. That being said, please don't hesitate to give any feedback or to ask me to make changes. These didn't take too long to complete. Can't wait to listen to the final product!

Waldron in section 16 looks simple enough for a newbie here. If you don't mind a deep Irish voice for him could I be penned down for him?
I'm imagining he's the slow spoken melancholic type of character?

I would like the Dinner Guest to appear in both section 7 as well as section 12. So if you play this role, you would then be unable to appear as Pratt's Usher in the same section. Which of these two would you like?

And the final section for Dr. Britt is also PL ok!
This finale from you is very moving. One gets the idea that Dr. Britt has just been putting on a brave face his whole life, and you can see he's still attempting to. But his failing health is causing that face to crack and show his real fear and desperation coming through.

In that case, Dinner Guest, Sections 7 and 12. Thanks.mightyfelix wrote: ↑July 16th, 2021, 11:30 amI would like the Dinner Guest to appear in both section 7 as well as section 12.

P.S. and shame on me for not reading the Character Sketches first, for I would have realized this.

Wow, thank you for powering through these so quickly! I like the calm unshaken air you've given her. I was able to mark about half of these PL ok right away, nice work! There are a few missing lines or slips that need to be addressed, and some optional notes as well, things that sound a bit off, but don't necessarily change the meaning. It's up to you to address those or not, just as you think.JubilantJacqui wrote: ↑July 14th, 2021, 1:25 am Here you go! I took a gamble and recorded them all in one sitting.

Section 1:
Missing part of voice credit. It should be: "Mrs. Lambert, her mother, read by..."
You ended too early! Mrs. Lambert still has more lines, on pages 9-12 of the script.
2 PL ok!
Section 5:
Again, you broke off too early! You have more lines on pages 6 and 7.
9 PL ok!
Section 10:
4:55 OPTIONAL This may not be a big deal, but the inflection here makes part of this question sound like a statement: "Someone has a message for you. Mrs. Rice?" Whereas the whole thing should be a question: "Someone has a message for you, Mrs. Rice?" Have a listen for yourself and see what you think. This is p. 7 of the script.
5:17 I'll call this one OPTIONAL as well. There is a word switch, but you've still given it a rising inflection, so it sounds like a question still. Script says "Is it someone for Mrs. Rice?" I hear "It is someone for Mrs. Rice?" (p. 8)
Section 12:
1:01 Changed word that give this phrase a different meaning. Script says, "You may turn on the light, Anthony." (p. 6) I hear, "You may turn to the light, Anthony."
13-17 are PL ok!
Section 18:
3:50 Missing line: "No." (page 9 of the script)
20-21 PL ok!
Section 22:
0:41 Added a negative here. Script says, "Why should I?" (p. 2 of the script) I hear, "Why shouldn't I?"
2:32 There is a little stumble here: "...and it it- is entirely in his hands." Could you give that another go? (p. 3)
4:30 Added a negative here as well. Script says, "...and that means I live in the past more and more." (p. 3) I hear, "...and that means I live in the past no more."
4:36 I am going to call this one OPTIONAL. There are a couple of words missing (underlined), and it sounds a bit strange to my ear, but I think it's understandable. See what you think. Script says, "I can imagine myself as I was when..." I hear, "I can imagine myself as when..."
6:05 The inflection here makes it sound as if Mrs. Lambert is speaking to Mr. Clarke. But in fact, Tony and Mr. Clarke are the same person. "And, besides, she has been promised for two years to Tony—Mr. Clarke." In standard PL, I suppose this would qualify as an OPTIONAL suggestion, but in the context of the story, it sounds odd.
9:12 This last note is 100% my fault, and if it had been the only note on this section, I would not have mentioned it. But, due to hasty scripting, I colored this line for you, and it should be for Morton instead: "And please don't distress her to-night. Let her live this evening as a joyous girl, undisturbed even by my question." Would you mind deleting that please, since you're in there making edits anyway?
