Because I can't really make my mind up on who to claim since I don't think I'd be good enough for my first choice and can't decide on my second choice, the roles aren't being claimed very quickly to help narrow it down but I would like to be in the play and if I just take whoever is last that no one wants then I don't feel bad claiming them
Thanks, Todd
Do you mean who was my first choice?

Unless I am mistaken, and I have read through the script multiple times, Jupiter is not in Act Two as is listed in the MW, but rather is in Act Three, which is not listed.
Thank you!
Greg
Thank you!
Greg

you did a great job with Jupiter, and so fast excellent work, Greg, thank you so much. Basically all is correct, if it wasn't for the small detail that you must have misread the name of the wife. It's Al-c-mena, not Al-a-mena. Usually pronuncing names might not be such a big deal, but here she is a very famous mythological person, being the mother of Hercules and all. I think Jupiter would have pronounced her name correctly, so I hope you won't mind redoing those parts. Luckily, her name is only mentioned 8 times. I wrote them all out for you:
Act 1:
> at 0:13: (p. 24) "kindly fare you well, Alcmena"
> at 2:46: (p. 25) "now Alcmena"
> from 2:52 to 2:57: (p. 25) between" my valour" and "from which" - long pause can get cut, it's the same speech
Act 3:
> at 0:40: (p. 40) "to bring assistance to Alcmena"
> at 1:20: (p. 40) "and to Alcmena"
> at 4:06: (p. 42) "prithee, Alcmena"
Act 4:
> at 5:02: (p. 57) "Alcmena is in labour"
Act 5:
> at 0:30: (p. 61) "of the person of Alcmena"
> at 0:59: (p. 61) "do thou return with Alcmena"
Sorry about that

If but for a single consonant it would have been a perfect submission! Well, once the error is made it is bound to be repeated. There is profound wisdom somewhere in that statement! I will try to get these fixed and back to you todayKitty wrote: ↑June 4th, 2023, 3:34 amyou did a great job with Jupiter, and so fast excellent work, Greg, thank you so much.

"Just because you can doesn't mean you should"—my first law of life.
poor Sosia, a serious case of double personality, if ever there was one. Excellently portrayed, I totally enjoyed it (and chuckled more than once )
only one small missed bit for act 1:
> at 6:32: (p. 11) please insert underlined part: "he smites with his falchion, the weapons crash, the welkin bellows"
the other 4 acts are straight PL ok great job for such a big part
thank you
Sonia
