In this edition of the SVC Podcast, SVC Contributing Editor Bennett Liles talks with Anthony Jones with audio operations on the hit Broadway show “Wicked.” Anthony discusses how, under the audio leadership of Michael Carrico, the current tour uses more than 40 Sennheiser wireless microphone systems and he outlines the setup and technical check-out for sound on the show. Also explored are the creative techniques for hiding microphones and transmitters within a variety of costumes worn by actors who sing and dance on the show.
