The Stage Where It Happens
Although David Korins had an impressive resume
of Broadway, film, television and music
credits, the New York-based production
designer had something to prove when interviewing
for the pop culture phenomenon
Hamilton. “I prepped for the interview like crazy, sketching
out my ideas, presenting a scene breakdown, basically
doing everything I could short of begging for the job,” Korins
said. “Lin Manuel Miranda (the show’s creator and star) had
developed an incredibly effective blueprint. I just wanted the
opportunity to help tell his story.”
