And my final Edfringe project . A delight to be back working on this beautiful play by .hazelwood

“Special mention too for the eye-watering visuals from James Appleby, who achieves practically West End productions values” - Everything Theatre

“the show makes smart, impactful use of minimal staging, instead relying heavily on its lighting design to show the switches in timeline, often happening very quickly. Designed by James Appleby, it is simple, yet dramatic, perfectly capturing the mood of the scenes.” - The Verdict

“Two men, a bench, and incredible lighting technique make this one of the most creative and beautifully executed productions in all of the Fringe” - The Student
