Sonalysts Studios three sound stages exceed expectations for privacy, sound control and construction.

Working heights of our stages range from 35 to 42 feet, each with a full catwalk system allowing the crew to work from the floor up or the catwalk down.

Over the past few years, we have hosted a number of features, including “Killer”, starring James Woods, “Amistad”, directed by Steven Spielberg, and “The Bronx is Burning”, an 8 part made for TV mini-series produced by ESPN. We also hosted “Deal or No Deal” with Howie Mandel, this past summer.

We are conveniently located between Boston and New York—along the shores of Long Island Sound, in Waterford, Ct.—in beautiful Southern New England.

The State of Connecticut offers a very generous 30% tax rebate incentive for filmmakers doing business in the state.

Children’s Museum of SE CT – Fairlytale Ball Fundraiser

The Children’s Museum of Southeastern Connecticut (CMSECT), based in Niantic and serving youth and families throughout the region and across the state, held its popular fundraiser, the 10th Annual Fairy Tale Ball on Sonalysts’ Stage 15 in January.

Our soundstage, which hosted about 300 guests, was transformed by the various donated creations. The event featured 25 designer dinner tables in themes from fairy tales, children’s books, and family-friendly movies — all created by well-known artists, interior decorators, party planners, graphic designers, couture experts, floral designers, landscape architects, and retailers.

CMSECT, 17 years old this November, continues to provide hands-on education and play opportunities for young children and their families from towns across the region — including a strong focus on making the Museum more diverse and accessible to children facing physical or developmental challenges.
