Summary

A restless ghost demands revenge for his unjust murder. A king seizes the throne but his power is built on lies. A mother begs her raging child to cease tormenting her. A daughter faces heartbreak after a sudden loss.

Denmark is a prison for young Hamlet, heir to the Danish throne. Injustice flourishes at home and abroad and the world seems broken beyond repair. In these dangerously heightened times truth is a tragic burden and trust is hard to find. Will Hamlet triumph over fear and fury?

Sound

The Plan-

For this show the biggest problem faced was getting equal coverage across the three seating banks that were surrounding the set. To gain equal coverage we used all six of the KV2 ESD 12 Speakers that were available in the chandler stock. we set them out with two facing each of the seating banks. Once correctly focused this gave and equal coverage across the seating banks. The Desk was set up using 7 of the Yamaha QL5's 8 Matrix's to have individual control of each channel.

Equipment used-

Speakers - 6 x KV2 [1]

Control - Yamaha QL5 [2]

Playback - MacBook Pro with Qlab Audio License via Dante Virtual Soundcard
