that you can say this without laughing was brilliant ! Sir Jealous is enraged all throughout the play. I bet you had fun recording this

Thanks, it was fun to record and I did like the line about the opera

excellent, thank you, Greg, wow this was a big role again. I like the wit in your voice right from the start, sounds a bit like somebody out of an Oscar Wilde play


Acts 2 and 5 are straight PL ok. A few notes for the other three acts though:
Act 1:
> for the voice credit, please cut out "act 1" in between. This will not be part of the credits
> at about 4:21: please insert: "Agreed; I think I see Sir Francis yonder."
Act 3:
> at 1:11: repetition can be cut: "What is the woman"
Act 4:
> at about 3:38: please insert two missed lines: "His Name." and "A third Person may not be proper perhaps; as soon as I have dispatch'd my own Affairs, I am at his Service. I'll send my Servant to tell him, I'll wait upon him in half an Hour."
> at 3:44: "This Exigence admits of no delay." – you say "exigesence" which doesn't exist I think ?

> at 4:05: "No, Mr. Marplot, you must not leave us" – you say "no" twice and leave a long space here....maybe you wanted to choose the second variant only ? could you cut out the one you don't want and trim the silent space ?
thanks

Many thanks for the comments and required edits. I admit I rushed it a bit to finish and in my hurry overlooked a few important things!
I shall address your concerns and re-upload this week.
I appreciate the comments regarding my reading. I seem to get these characters that are a lot of fun to read and I'm glad that comes through in the recording.
Be back soon!
Greg
