GOLDFISH

GOLDFISH follows private eye Philip Marlowe through a world of pool hall informants on the hunt for stolen pearls. Along the way, Marlowe and his characters spit out all the short, snappy, now clichéd lines that Chandler invented. The play's on-location recording gives each scene the ambiance, subtleties, and depth of space and sound that can never be created in the studio. You can almost smell the stale smoke hanging in the air and the cheap whiskey on Marlowe's breath. If audio were recorded in black-and-white, it would sound like this.
