sound design for plays often involves the selection of music and sounds (sound score) for a production based on intimate familiarity with the play, and the design, installation, calibration and utilization of the sound system that reproduces the sound score. the sound designer for a play and the production's director work together to decide the themes and emotions to be explored. based on this, the sound designer for plays, in collaboration with the director and possibly the composer, decides upon the sounds that will be used to create the desired moods. in some productions, the sound designer might also be hired to compose music for the play. the sound designer and the director usually work together to "spot" the cues in the play (i.e., decide when and where sound will be used in the play). some productions might use music only during scene changes, whilst others might use sound effects. likewise a scene might be underscored with music, sound effects or abstract sounds that exist somewhere between the two. some sound designers are accomplished composers, writing and producing music for productions as well as designing sound. many sound designs for plays also require significant sound reinforcement (see sound design for musicals). sound design for plays was recognized by the american theatre wing's tony awards with the tony award for best sound design of a play until the 2014-15 season, later reinstating the award in the 2017-18 season.
