Because David has watched and interpreted great drama for so many different mediums, he can offer some very unique insights, including . . .

Why a designer is like a therapist and a midwife and . . . THIS.

How the evolution of Hamilton and Dear Evan Hansen were oh so different, but with the same sensational results.

The key to success while a show is in previews.

The big question he asks of himself whenever he designs a set . . . and that you MUST ask on your shows.

The #1 skill that a designer needs.
