The podcast is back with all new episodes! This week we are joined by Lighting Designer and current Helen Hayes nominee Mextly Couzin who made her Broadway debut this season with Job. Cory and Mextly chat about that show’s journey from a tiny room downtown to the Main sStem, what it means to be an emerging designer, pigeonholing designers into boxes, designing outside at the Old Globe, and the crazy story of the first time Cory and Mextly worked together.
