Reading is done - we had some sandwiches after, and then I asked for comments from each person, both about the act and the character they played. All who took part in the last reading thought the new version of act one was a 1000 percent better, and it was. The structure seems sound. I've been harping on the length for months, and I think now the author finally sees we have to cut five or six pages still. The songs got nice reaction, and a couple of the actors had terrific comments and suggestions, all of which were duly noted and some of which will be implemented. In fact, as I watched Alet do her part, she was so interesting in her choices that a lot of what she was playing will be added to new lines and at least one new act one scene.
