YOUR HEART WILL SKIP A BEAT

Before a line of dialogue is spoken in Adam Rapp’s brilliant, haunting play “The Sound Inside”—the first offering in Goodman Theatre’s three-play LIVE series directed by Robert Falls—your heart will skip a beat as the stage lights rise to a golden hue cast across the sparse Owen Theatre from a nearly impossible vantage point high above backstage right. You feel a rush of expectation at the glorious sight—after more than a year on pause—as cast and camera crew filter in surrounded by a captive audience, all positioned in the best seat in the house. Your house.
