How does sound shape the way we experience a story on stage? In this episode, sound designer Debashis Sinha (Anne of Green Gables) and composer/sound designer Verne Good (Twelfth Night, 2024) join Associate Forum Coordinator James Hyett for an illuminating conversation about the artistry behind theatre’s sonic world. From the delicate serenity of birdsong to the jarring pulse of a jackhammer, they reveal how music, effects, and ambient sound work together to deepen character, set tone, and transport audiences.
