Yes, of course! Thank you so much!

I see the Narrator (Section 17) is still unclaimed. Is that not the same as Sections 18, 19 and 20? Does the Narrator read the italic bits? If so, and if you are happy to have a woman as Narrator, could I give it a bash.
Don't laugh at my ignorance!

Hey Sally,
Thank you! I'll put you down as narrator.
Sections 18, 19 and 20 will be where I put the finished acts after I've edited them together. Don't worry, plays are complicated, so lots of people get confused! I'm glad that you've asked! The narrator reads the intros and outros, the Cast of Characters and everything in italics. In Act 1, if you read from the google documents, I've highlighted all of the narrators lines. (I normally have to do this because it confuses me!)

Any questions feel free to either post them here or PM me!

Fellows - Act 1 (1:24)

He actually appears to have no lines in Act 2 so I don't have a recording for that act.

Fellows - Act 3 (1:04)

Ok. I now understand. Looks like fun, can't wait to start.

I see you are on line at the mo. Can't seem to access Act 2 at all - Act 1 and 3 are fine.

Question :
If the text reads : JILL. [Pulling his hair]
Surely, as Narrator, I don't read the bracket only. I must read "Jill, pulling his hair"?

You can read whichever you wish to! Some narrators only read the brackets, others read the names to. I must admit that reading the names would make more sense, but whichever you feel happiest with I'll be happiest with!

P.S. I've put Act 2 on a Google Document too. Here it is https://docs.google.com/document/d/1TTU7DkMpFPm73fL8dX5ZEaqlM8WmiBNzvkQ_5vPLBqI/edit

Can you help please? Just beyone 1/2 way, there is :

MRS. H. Dawker! [He comes to her.]
[I shall send him a note to-night, and word it so that
he will be bound to come and see us to-marrow morning. Will
you be in the study just before eleven o'clock, with this
gentleman?]

The brackets are in italics. Do you want me to read this, or is it for Mrs H. Dawker?

Amanda noticed this when she was recording Mrs H. You only need to say "he comes to her" Sorry, I couldn't find a copy without at least one mistake!
