#45 Nevin Steinberg

It's been nearly a year since the Tony Awards Administration Committee eliminated the Sound Design Tony so this week we check in on what progress is being made to right that wrong with Sound Designer Nevin Steinberg! Nevin tells us about the steps being taken to educate the public about the art of Sound Design including a newly formed committee within United Scenic Artists. But this episode has so much more! Nevin and Cory chat about his work on 'Hamilton' and the emotional and professional impact of being involved with such a runaway hit and Nevin shares lots of interesting anecdotes from 'The Addams Family', 'Venus in Fur' and 'In The Heights.' Hear about the challenges of designing sound for Shakespeare in the Park, why he often doesn't listen to cast albums, and you'll never drink a glass of Merlot again without thinking about Nevin's dead-on comparison of design and the fine art of winemaking. Cheers!
