Hofstra Drama 20 – Sound for the Theatre

My friends and I (Brennan, Tori, Arianna, and Dianté) sitting in the Bread Box (Brennan’s car) in the parking garage of Roosevelt Field Mall on the evening of Free Pretzel Day at Auntie Anne’s. I intended to record just the sounds of the parking garage, but a spider had entered the car and landed on me and Brennan lost it. Tori is cracking up, Arianna is wondering if I had started recording yet, and Dianté is jamming to music.
