Lengths 9:08, 1:04, 1:47, and 3:16 respectively.

Thanks, Todd

(By the way, you going to have the Introduction read? It is very interesting....)

Hi Todd! This is years apart! But while editing, I'm missing an "Ant!" (accidentally read as "Ah!") from the line "Ant! Would you blame the locust for his song?".
Here's the current line, if you'd like a reminder of your Raguenaeu voice!: https://librivox.org/uploads/rapunzelina/ant.mp3
Only because Lise says following "you never called me Ants" so it would make more sense, but no worries if you can't make it!

Well, glad you sent the reminder file on my voice, since I had none of the files anymore. It has been a while.

You might want only the "Ant!" part, but I recorded the entire (short) line for you.

Thanks, Todd

I still need to work on the preface/introduction/dramatis personnae, after which I'll straighten up the Magic Window and create the cast list Almost there!

Well done, Rapunzelina. Magnificent Job

I had given this one up for dead

Thank you, Lora! Act 1 was the most difficult one, so I'm open to suggestions for improvement if there's anything that can be done better!

I've just uploaded the Preface + Dramatis Personae https://librivox.org/uploads/mightyfelix/cyranodebergerac_0_rostand_128kb.mp3 25:12

I think this is a good plan. You're right, the cast of characters is MASSIVE. I don't think anyone will miss knowing that a particular person played Soldier 3 and Dancer 1 and Pastrycook 4.

PL Okay for Act 2. Rapunzelina, I can't think of anything that would be an improvement. Your editing is excellent--the lines flow well. Altogether a delight to listen to!

I will get to Act 4 and the preface very soon.

Wow!
PL Okay for the Preface and Act 4. It has been such a privilege to be part of this amazing production. Congratulations to everyone who's been involved.

Thanks,
Lora

Thank you Lora! I'm relieved everything sounds fine!

I'm going to miss seeing Cyrano in the Dramatic forum when it's catalogued

I won't miss seeing it in my uploads folder!

I'll work on this in a little bit. Hopefully, I can get it over to archive before bed, at least.

Thank you so much to everyone who helped to give this project the extra shove it needed to get across the finish line!

Please let me know if you see anything that looks like it needs to be corrected or changed.
