The soundtrack for Doubt was about connecting St Nicholas school with certain elements of American life in 1964. Sounds from outside of the school walls make themselves present and quietness is disrupted. The noise of helicopters, sirens & planes remind us that this play is also a parable about life in the US today. Sounds from inside the school such as chairs moving, choir practice and playground noise are distant so as to enlarge the space of the play beyond the stage. An ideal world is reflected in Eclesiastic music.
