Join us in celebrating the beginning of a new year with our special guest, Sound Designer and Composer Jane Shaw. We delve into her journey into the world of
sound design for theater, and explore her impressive list of credits. Our conversation is full of fun anecdotes about her career, as well as her hobbies outside of work. As one of the founding members of TSDCA (Theatrical Sound
Design Composer Association), she has a wealth of knowledge about the history and current state of sound design in the theater world. So, if you're interested in learning more about this field, this episode is a must-listen!

"I love supporting story and emotion thru sound and music. I am endlessly inspired by my directors, fellow designers, actors, singers, musicians, as well as the messy, wonderful, dirty, haunting, and tormented manmade and natural world that surrounds us."
