Description: "In Theatre Sound John Leonard provides a thorough review of essential information - from basics to more technically advanced work. Beginning with a brief history of the use of sound in the theatre, he covers different sound systems currently in use, as well as the practical considerations arising from working in different types of theatres.".

"John Leonard also discusses artistic input - working with the director and other designers - as well as the production process - putting together cue sheets, desk plots, conducting rehearsals, and operating the show. He gives special attention to musical theatre, with ample discussion of microphones, piano techs, loudspeaker rigs, and the basics of operating a musical."--BOOK JACKET.
