The aural heart in Dial M For Murder exists in Margot’s World. I opted to create an unsettling environment by sourcing music that with the context of our show has double meaning, as our audience is with us every step of the way. The script is full of realistic sound effects such as door buzzers and telehpone rings in very specific locations of our stationary set. I want to play with effects with these cues to create space. The Interview will swell in and out with our home invasion scene.
