The problem and the solution

In reply to:	Sound Design reinstated? Nope, Tonys won't hear of it - WaymanWong 12:23 pm EST 11/14/14

The gist of the problem is that sound design, as presently constituted, encompasses two separate things. One is getting the sound produced naturally on stage (and in the pit, in a musical) distributed and delivered to the audience. That is basically an engineering job-taking what someone else creates and making it function properly. The other is the actual creation of the show's soundscape, a creative endeavor. My guess is that the solution next season will be a rule defining the former out of the award.
