The Master and Margarita

Assistant Sound Designer

It was a pleasure to assist Clare Marie on The Master and Margarita. For this show, most of the sound was performed live on stage with a variety of non traditional instruments, making it a unique piece every night. I was in charge of creating the QLab for anything that was not performed live, and offering input during tech of how the levels were sounding. I also mixed one of the soundscapes used in the show, as well as transferred it to cassette to be played live.
