"Nick Richings’ lighting is unerringly perfect. Recreating the sense of the then stage lighting, darkening the stage ominously for Charles’ speech dissolving Parliament, flooding the area with joyous happy light in the big numbers – everything is beautifully judged, perfectly executed. There are no jarring transitions, no odd shadows. Tremendous work." livetheatreuk.co.uk
"The stage design by Hugh Durrant is reminiscent of The Globe whilst the costumes shimmer with elegance and fun under the lighting of Nick Richings" Petra Schofield theatrebath.co.uk
"This is an extravagant show and Hugh Durrant’s opulent set, beautifully lit by Nick Richings design, allows the action to effortlessly glide from scene to scene, without interruption to the narrative." Stagetalkmagazine.com
