COMPLETE[PLAY]Don Quixote in England by Fielding - thw

I was checking out the text, and I'm wondering whether the voter in scene VIII is the same as Mr Retail in scene ix, because I think the mayor is addressing the voter by that name in scene viii

Here's Mr Retail. I was bullied into recording it straight away. Sonia put the microphone under my nose and threatened to send me to bed without dessert if I didn't deliver on the spot. So here it is, and, Todd, could you please replace my previous "A voter" by "Mr Retail, a voter" for my voice credit. (You guessed it, I was told to add this by her-who-shall-not-be-named).

Sandra, who's claiming her well-deserved dessert now.

I'm not sure I should give a PL ok after such a scathing public shaming... but since everything is in order and you captured your previous voter's character and voice so wonderfully, I'll let it pass for this once.

Thank you for the fast delivery (barely coaxed into)

Sonia

Act 1 is ready for final PL.

Fun play. I'll look for more Fielding. (In the meantime, the "real" Don Quixote is underway....)

Thanks, Todd

Todd,

When you state the "real" Don Quixote is underway, do you mean "The Comical History of Don Quixote: Part One"? I've already recorded my lines for this version of DQ. If there is another in the works I shall keep an eye open for it.

Thanks!

Greg

Yes, I mean “The Comical History of Don Quixote: Part One“

Thanks, Todd

excellent editing and wonderfully funny playing. A great start to this play.

> at 7:36: I noticed that I failed to notice the missing "Scene. An inn in a country borough" in the initial PL round

not sure whether it's important though as it is repeated at the beginning of the first act. Other than that everything is fine, I let you decided whether you need it.

thanks

Don't need it, especially since it is repeated in text.

Cataloging now.

Thanks, Todd
