Hoping I haven’t missed some lines? And if I’m off the mark, especially when reading the verses, just suggest a different tone, pace or rhythm and I’ll give it another jab!
Such a fun play and I can’t wait to hear it all come together!

Hi Val
Excellent performance, the spoken lines are expressively read and the Airs have a good rhythm.

Just 1 PL note:
at 4.02 (page 28) insert the lines of Air XIII and the line following beginning Thus, sir...

Otherwise all is OK!
