Reviews:
“Katie Lias’s cosy set overflows with Victoriana, including a collection of silhouettes that occasionally join in the chatter”

The Guardian
“Katie Lias' inspired Victoriana. Lias is a real Watermill stalwart, who seems to effortlessly make the most of its intimate space”
WhatsOnStage
“Katie Lias' set makes an immediate impression: multi-levelled and plush, it centres around a massive pile of books that comes to provide everything from a ladder to a hiding place as the show goes on. It's gorgeous and entertaining in its own right”
Broadway World
“Katie Lias’ set is so natural a fit in the Watermill’s auditorium, you could easily mistake it for a permanent fixture”
