点评:We LOVE this theatre! All the shows are AMAZING! The quality of performers and live music they put together is incredible for such a small town theatre! (comparable to a major metro area).
BUT... we just attended a performance of 'Heathers' and while caliber of performers was still great - the sound was Way Too Loud! Often, and in EVERY ensemble number, the music level overwhelmed the vocals. Perhaps the sound engineers have heard the songs so many times they already KNOW all the lyrics? But the poor audience has to struggle to make them out over the tidal wave of sound reverberating though-out the hard surfaced interior.
When the sound people DO hear lyrics get covered by music, their reaction is to turn UP the lyrics volume rather than DOWN turning music amps! Sigh. Sound volume was often at the threshold of being painful!! It really was TOO LOUD! My spouse and I both had our ears ringing for an hour after the show was over. Please, turn the volume down.
(Wouldn't hurt to have your sound engineers hearing tested...)
翻译:我们喜欢这个剧院!所有的演出都很棒!对于这样一个小镇剧院(可与大都市地区相媲美),他们表演的演员和现场音乐的质量令人难以置信。
但是……我们刚刚观看了“Heathers”的演出,虽然演员的水平仍然很棒 - 声音太大了!通常,在每一个合奏曲目中,音乐水平都会盖过人声。也许音响师已经听过这些歌曲很多次,他们已经知道了所有的歌词?但可怜的观众不得不努力在坚硬表面的室内回荡的巨浪声中辨别他们。
当人们听到的歌词被音乐覆盖时,他们的反应是调高歌词音量,而不是调低音乐放大器!唉。音量经常处于痛苦的临界点!!真的太大了!演出结束后,我和我的配偶都耳朵嗡嗡响了一个小时。请调低音量。
(让音响工程师进行听力测试不会有什么坏处……)
