  • Pre-Show Music

    • The pre-show music I choose was slow Jazz to match the tone of the show

    • It was split into two different eras of Jazz to match the ages of the characters. For Ben, since he was the older character, I picked 1940s Jazz and for Gus, the younger character, I picked 1960s Jazz.

Lavatory Chain Pull

  • In multiple parts of the show there is a lavatory chain being pulled off stage by Gus as a comedic moment where the toilet won’t flush.

  • Creating the Lavatory Chain Pull

    • Recorded vise grips being shaken using Audacity

    • Distorted the sound

    • Amplified small parts of the effect

    • Added a toilet flushing sound after the first pull
