"It's a vivid tale, one requiring all of designer Ellan Parry's creative skills. She mixes modern industrial materials with ornate costumes, and references diverse influences including Surrealist artist Claude Cahun, Pierre et Gilles and Terry Gilliam's Brazil........stand by for Handel like you've never seen him before...."
Classic Fm Magazine
"An infectiously charming, energetic show.... Ellan Parry and Johanna Town's production and lighting designs conjured a constantinople seashore and imperial palace from little more than scaffolding and a scrunch of plastic sheeting, sending miniature battleships speeding across the nave on pulleys..." Anna Picard, The Independent
