as a sound designers dream, in many ways we can put sound above the audience, below the audience,
H
4.4
5.2
4.6
254
Male
inside the theater or outside the theater. it's about 400 tie lines around the building.

wow. we can put loudspeakers virtually anywhere,

to hopefully create a fully immersive.

it's not a place where you'd probably want to design a show if you're new to sound design. there's a lot of choices. you have to make a lot of
N

very critical decisions, very quickly.
N
3.2
3.8
4.2
254

what would you say is the most challenging thing for the guest sound designers that are coming in? they're most surprised, what they say, oh, i have to decide this and that?
N
4.272727

it's the sheer number of loudspeakers you use, i think.
N
5.363636

254
Male
we've got a large system. we can use anything between 70 and 120 loudspeakers.
N
4.2

and for a drama show, that's actually quite a lot.
N

4.2
254
Male
it's not a huge amount if you're doing a big musical,
N

but for a chekhov that's a lot of loudspeakers.

we've also got a lot of control ones, which we use for surround sound.

the biggest challenge for a sound designer coming in, is
N

4.6
254
Male
really, you need to plan what you're going to do.
N
3.2

4.4
254
Male
because we turn around shows quite quickly. if you're not clear about what you want to achieve,
N
2.8

you can be going around in circles for hours and days.

what are some of your favorite parts about the space that make you really like to work there?
N
2.636364

well, i think the most important thing about the space is that it's one that's really shared between the audience and the performer.
N

5.2
4
254
Male
the audience enter the auditorium through the same doors the performers enter and exit in performance.
N
4
4.2

so it really is a shared space and no member of the audience...

3.6
254
Male
it truly is a remarkable place to experience any theater,
H
3.1
5.3
3.6

and as the sound designer, you can make the audience feel as if they're in the...
H
4.727273
5.272727
5
254
Male
well, you can make them feel like a tiny grain of sand on a huge desert,
S
3.4
3.6
3.4
254

so you can really use sound as a focusing tool in quite a unique way.
