Prelude to Death in Venice, a one-man show the company presented earlier this fall, used electronics to modify actor Bill Raymond's voice, metamorphosing its characteristics and its position. Far from undermining the effectiveness of dramatic performance, Breuer maintains that, properly directed, the amplifier can restore the theater: "The Loeb seats 550-plus. It's not that good acoustically, and the actors have to project like crazy. Do you know what happens to acting when...
