L3 - AN INTERVIEW WITH ABE JACOB: A FOUNDING FATHER’S REMEMBRANCES AND PERSPECTIVE, WITH JOHN KILGORE

Abstract:
A Founding Father's Remembrances and Perspective

Moderator John Kilgore, a legendary Broadway sound man in his own right, will talk with the "Godfather of Theatre Sound Design." Abe Jacob began his career mixing live sound for Jimi Hendrix and the Mamas and The Papas. The rock 'n roll phase of his career is highlighted by designing the Monterey Pop Festival sound system. Moving on to Broadway, Jacob worked on such long-run hits as Jesus Christ Superstar, A Chorus Line, Pippin, Chicago, Cats, and Evita. A not-to-be-missed, behind-the-scenes look at the formative years of contemporary live sound design.
