you're immediately drawn into this atmospheric play by the incredible sound and set design... the costumes, of which more later, are a feast for the eyes
- North West End UK
The themes of light and darkness are mirrored in Neill Brinkworth’s lighting design, and designer Katie Lias’ spare staging which mixes sooty Victorian brickwork with flashes of illumination

The set design is almost another changing character… one moment we are in a cold, damp laboratory, then the dangerous streets of Victorian London, next a warm welcoming house and at one point an imagined lecture hall. The changes are fluid and you know exactly where you are in each case, a very well used stage
