‘English’ scenic designer Marsha Ginsberg
Description
Marsha Ginsberg is a longtime scenic designer in the theater and opera worlds. She has such experience, in fact, that she is an associate arts professor at New York University in Abu Dhabi. But, until this season, Ginsberg had not designed on Broadway. That changed with “English”; and Ginsberg earned her first Tony Award nomination for her design of Sanaz Toossi’s play.
Here, Ginsberg details why designing a simple-looking Iranian classroom was actually a fun challenge and how her time in Abu Dhabi paid off for “English.”
