Over the summer of 2019, I was lucky enough to be able to work on a short play written by one of my friends from school, and produced as part of the New York Theatre Festival’s Summerfest series. My role was an aglomeration of sound designer, composer, and sound operator along with lighting designer, stage manager and lighting operator . The show was a short Lovecraftian horror thriller set aboard a stranded antarctic expedition in the early 20th Century.
I created poster art, a musical theme, and sound effects for the production. The show opened with a slightly shortened variant of the theme over which played a narration done by the chair of our school’s theatre department, which is playable from the link below. Although running sound and lighting during a show can be incredibly stressful, this was without a doubt one of the most fun and rewarding collaborative projects I’ve been part of.
