Concept: 

Meeting at this bar called "The World" owed by Suzuka, Lev, Suzuko, Ritsu and Eve discussed their identity and family relationship crisis. One of the important sound cue is the bell-ring of this bar. As the play went further and the secret of Suzuka get revealed, the bell-ring of this bar becomes more and more distorted, leading us away from the real world. Moreover, during transitions, there are different ambiences signaling the jump of time line in this play.
