[PLAY] Shakuntala by Kalidasa - thw

[AgnesRobert]

hello, I find this this prologue to be lovely

1 Prologue, Act 1

and was wondering if I might also read that, but then I do already have a part at the end so that might not be allowed

[ToddHW]

Your other part isn't until Act 3, so yes, you may read the prologue.

Thanks, Todd

Fingers crossed!

Here at long last are the PL notes for Act 1 Stage Directions, my apologies for the delay

Hi dc
You have corrected most of the problems noted earlier, but there are still some errors.

PL Notes for act 1:
at 5.36 text is after many salutations but the word salutations is not clear
at 9.40 text is Shakuntala starts to walk away but I hear She starts....
at 10.49 missing line Cries behind the scenes
at 11.29 text is The Same but I hear The Hermitage
at 12.13 words his wreath and with his bow are almost inaudible
at 14.50 directions Right Shakuntala and Left King are in the wrong order
at 15.40-15.56 directions here are almost inaudible
around 17.27 directions are almost inaudible
at 17.40 text is The same but I hear The hermitage
a lot of the directions in scene 2 will need amplifying before editing

As a general comment, you have only left gaps of 1-2 seconds between directions, it would help the editor if you left longer gaps in the other acts.
