Bonus photos: My night at Buntport Theater’s ‘Wake’

OPENING 17

Adam Stone (who also plays Ariel) creates a ethereal soundscape for “Wake” that is meaningfully themed by tattered cassette tape (which you can see above strewn across his piano). At one point, in an actual, live effect, audio from a real, broken cassette plays while the tape runs through Stone’s gloved fingers. He achieved the effect by taking the magnetic playhead from a Walkman, sewing it into his glove and wiring it into an amplifier. Pretty freaking amazing.
