Hofstra Drama 20 – Sound for the Theatre

Date/Time/Location: April 26th, 3:09PM, ITS Service Desk offices.  

Furthest: Distant cars and trucks racing on Hempstead Turnpike, birds chirping. 

Medium: Boss yelling in outrage about technology, coworker writing with pen on paper, clothing shifting, chair squeaking slightly. 

Closest: Hum of desktop computers, my chair spinning, keyboard clicking, phone buzzing from notifications. 

Sound level is pretty null, as the office itself is mostly quiet with some very minute sounds from the machines and people here and there. My boss raising his voice outside and the cars zooming by are the only things that disrupt this peace. The amount of sound activity lies in a small range despite these interruptions in sound. 

One Word Description: Uneasy. 

Essential Sounds: 

1. Boss yelling 
2. Chair squeaking 
3. Cars zooming nearby
