I'll second the Iceman Cometh.

I will second The Iceman Cometh.

sun surfer · 10-03-2012, 04:51 PM

Success! Everything's now working again.

I title yesterday "As My Mobile Lay Dying".

Anyway, I had tried to edit the noms yesterday on the mobile before posting, even though it was going to be a laborious process, but it wouldn't give me a scroll bar on the post box I was editing so I couldn't scroll down to the necessary text.

I'll update noms now. Still open for about eight more hours.

ETA - HomeInMyShoes, you actually thirded The Iceman Cometh.

Bookworm_Girl · 10-03-2012, 10:20 PM

I will second Six Characters in Search of an Author.

Bookworm_Girl · 10-03-2012, 10:21 PM

I will third The Country Wife.

guanaco · 10-03-2012, 10:55 PM

I 'll support the Oresteia. It's a classic.

caleb72 · 10-04-2012, 12:36 AM

I'll fourth The Iceman Cometh, The Oresteia and The Country Wife to get them in the voting.

I'll third The Lower Depths to get it one step closer.

Nothing worse than having a vote for 1 selection.

Hooray! I was hoping there was someone else awake in a time zone out there to push some more nominations into the voting phase. It is a very interesting month.

sun surfer · 10-04-2012, 01:41 AM

And nominations are closed. Poll will be up shortly.

We wouldn't have had a vote with only one nominee; if only one nomination was fully nominated by close (or none), we would've also used the nominees with the next highest amount of votes until we have at least two nominees for the vote...but even so it's always better to get enough fully nominated ones!

fantasyfan · 10-04-2012, 04:52 AM

I'll use my final nomination to fourth The Lower Depths by Maxim Gorky.

Oops! Looks like I was too late. Sorry!

GA Russell · 10-04-2012, 11:20 PM

Maybe thirty years ago I saw Noises Off with Linda Thorson on Broadway, and enjoyed it very much, as did the entire audience.

Very, very funny. So if it's not too late, that's what I nominate.
