...all those involved in putting on the play performance in Cordor.

These events can be nerve-wracking and challenging at the best of times - but to do so whilst the server count was so high - it can test the nerves!

Kudos to the Arelith Team for putting the server together well enough to withstand the load.
Kudos to our Actors and Actresses.

I'm so very pleased to see that place being used; it's a real gem.

Be nice to see those plays posted on youtube too, when they happen. I think even an Arelith channel there might not be a bad thing, so as to get all those existing videos in one place.

Thanks to all the crowd and my fellow actors in it. Was a treat to put a play on again.

Hmm... I might be able to do a video of the next one, and then maybe some voice over for the lines and the like. Although that would probably mean that Dish would have to stop cheating by having his script open during productions.

I did take some screenshots at least early on, I'll see about cleaning those up and posting them.

This was the first event of this kind that I attended, and I really enjoyed it! Everyone did a great job, but my favorite player was probably Feign. I loved his observer/narrator act, such a great callback to classic theatre.

Well-deserved kudos to all involved.

As both myself and Terto has awaited a long time for this to be put onto stage I was super excited to at last see it performed. I am stunned by this production, Well done all around. From the custom descriptions (I could totally not tell that was not a dwarf) to the rewriting for it to fit the stage and the actors.

Amazing work everyone, trying to look past my personal connection to the play.

It is an amazing play, it could have been any king, and queen, any antagonist and any protagonist, the play is stands on its own without the historical references. I really hope there is more comming from that stagegroup.

With love
Terto Tarquin

Video of the productions would be awesome, especially for people who can not attend at the given time of the plays.

Why don't you prep and print it out on paper for you to have on your player side, that would circumvent the issue of knowing what to say next. (Also we would never know).

Another option is for Katie to hire a "Whisperer" to assist the actors who loose their lines.

pps.

Katie needs to hire a fulltime stage-effects wizard.

Kudos to the team for making the stage in the first place. It makes it much easier to do the already difficult art of theatre within NWN.

Kudos to the players supporting the story, too. Wouldn't be the same without you.

...the numerous individuals who have recently interacted with Gerin. I have gained insight into a collective noun of roleplayers and each has brought their own curiosity shop ways of emoting / communicating. It has been a delight to see.
