SHOWS: Cat on a Hot Tin Roof music
« on: Jan 15, 2016, 01:55 am »
Not sure if this post is in the right place or appropriate (sorry if not mods), but I just found out before going into tech that the music I thought I would be supplied with for preshow and intermission will not be available. If any of you have worked the show: did you use music? If so, what kind?

Have you had a conversation with your director about this?  Pre-show and intermission music choices can be big artistic choices that should be driven from the director first.   S/he may even make the active choice to NOT use music in either spot.

Full disclosure: I'm creating sound FX for the show as well. The director and I reviewed those cues today. I've created a sample list of music for her to chose from if she wants it based on style and era, just thought I'd post for suggestions if anyone had any.

Here's the folks who have listed the show as something they worked on before in BTDT.
