Description:
      “Playback” was inspired by the movie “Click” in which a universal remote control controls real life events. It doesn’t get much more audience friendly than this production while still maintaining a strong and engaging musical score. The total integration is off the charts! Effects include a start-up TV intro with sampled commercials, “pause,” volume adjustments, slow motion, fast forward, rewind, etc. The show concludes with the remote control going haywire, all the different effects back-to-back, ending eventually with "Power Off".
       “Playback” was originally commissioned for the fall of 2010. The electronic integration is vital to the success of this show. Every sound heard comes with the show. You just need a sampler and a powerful sound system!
