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.

N

wow. we can put loudspeakers virtually anywhere,

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

very critical decisions, very quickly.

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
| 4.545455

it's the sheer number of loudspeakers you use, i think.
|
N
| 5.363636
| 5

|
254
|
Male
|
we've got a large system. we can use anything between 70 and 120 loudspeakers.
|
N
| 4.2
| 4.6
| 4.6
|
254

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

it's not a huge amount if you're doing a big musical,

N

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

the biggest challenge for a sound designer coming in, is

254

|
really, you need to plan what you're going to do.
|
N
| 3.2

| 4.4
|
254

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

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?

|
82

Male

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

| 4.2

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

it's further than nine meters from the center of the stage.

it truly is a remarkable place to experience any theater,
|
H

| 5.3

and as the sound designer, you can make the audience feel as if they're in the...
