Around you, a company of 14 is engaged in the very peculiar-and peculiarly impossible-task of making a new play. You'll have a seat next to the sound designer as he mixes cues. You'll eavesdrop on backstage gossip as it happens over headset. You'll watch the director struggle to contain the uncontainable.
