An excellent book! A great breakdown of the art of sound design and how it fits in today's theatre
--William Liotta, Tulane University

I have used the first edition of this book for years and I am very happy with the new edition.
--Michael Oncle, University of Memphis

Every phase of the production process is covered in detail, along with a host of anecdotal examples from the personal experiences of the authors. In all, it's ideal reading for those involved in the creative aspect of theatre sound rather than the practical operation.
--Lighting and Sound Magazine

This is currently (and has been since 1992) THE key text for students and practitioners in sound design for performance
--Scott Palmer, Leeds University UK
