Katie Lias’s striking two-tier set design

  • The Telegraph

Designer Katie Lias artfully conjures a BBC sound studio post-war… the whole edifice of the Goons comedy was built on his writing (as cleverly demonstrated in Lias' design, with an untidy pile of discarded paper growing above the studio ceiling)

  • WhatsOnStage

Designer Katie Lias’ deceptively simple set captures the practical austerity of a 1950s radio studio, while hiding extra spaces behind gauzes… it adds another layer of comedy and invention to the production. 

  • The Stage

…melt with nostalgia at Katie Lias’ artful set of old tape spools and microphones

  • Libby Purves, Theatre Cat
