Hofstra Drama 20 – Sound for the Theatre

Date: 2/9 6:51, my upstairs living room

Farthest away from me: My downstairs housemates talking in their kitchen

Medium range: My refrigerator humming in the kitchen and my upstairs housemate’s desk chair creaking a few times per minute 

Closest to me: My keyboard clacking as I type and my occasional sniffling. My other housemate typing on her phone and clearing her throat 

The sound level is very quiet. My other 2 housemates are out of the house and everyone is sort of decompressing from the day on their own in different parts of the house. 

One word: Mundane 

3 essential sounds: Chatter of the downstairs housemates, the fridge, and my housemate’s nails as she types her phone.
