system designed by Scott Lehrer with assistant Charles Coes. Atticus Finch is loud
and clear with Sennheiser SK5212/3732 microphones in the mix.

hands of A1 Ty Lackey.

COME FROM AWAY
In the immediate wake of the 09/11/01 terrorist attacks, incoming aircraft were diverted from the NYC
area to other airports, many outside the USA. Those diverted to St. Johns, Newfoundland found their
reception by the local residents in the small, isolated town of Gander to be remarkably kind and
sensitive inviting the "stranded" passengers into their homes for a "sleep-over." For this heart-warming
musical, Sound Designer Gareth Owen chose a new Avid S6L-32 audio console for A1 Chris Leussmann
to mix the d&b loudspeaker combination in Ford's Theatre, DC and the Royal Alex, Toronto, scheduled
before the Broadway Premier.
