Description

Who needs a pair of heels, a coconut, and a doorbell…? The answer: a foley artist. Step into The Booth and experience the mysterious world of radio plays where we see everything we’re only supposed to hear. Centring around a ghostly radio play, the action switches between the live recording and the cast's off-air shenanigans. As contrasting egos begin to clash, will the production survive? What gets left behind when it's silent? This new comedy touches on how drama is shaped by the medium in which it is presented, while satirising the power dynamics of any theatrical endeavour.
