Hofstra Drama 20 – Sound for the Theatre

Date: May 19

Location: The landing of the stairway between floors at Broadfield

Far Sounds: Laughter by the back of the house, a glass clinking upstairs

Medium Sounds: Anna, Andrew, and Ben talking in the doorway of Anna’s room upstairs, the squeak of a water bottle closing

Close Sounds: Heavy footsteps against the wooden floor in the living room, a notification dinging on my phone

Sound Description/Level: In this environment, the sounds all feel a little bit muffled as I sit in between floors, it almost feels like a liminal space between two separate environments

One Word: Removed
