Reel Highlights:

This is an example soundscape for an outbreak of the riots outside their apartment. The design for this production was highly immersive, and relied heavily on the sound system design to place sounds "downstairs", "just outside their door", "down the street", or "in the apartment". (Some of that spacial sense and movement was lost in the transfer from QLab to audio reel.)

About the Play:

In 2001, the death of an unarmed Black man by the police has put the city of Cincinnati on edge. This incident has incited a five-day riot setting the citizens against the police force. During these violent protests, twins Felicia and Felix hunker down with their mother in their apartment. In lockdown, Felicia fine-tunes her natural history thesis while Felix, protective of his mother and sister, takes care of the family's needs. Returning from a risky grocery run, Felix brings home more than just dinner; he drags an unconscious white man into his family's apartment. The family attempts to find out who this man is and why Felix brought him home, while the riots grow and move closer.
