"With no pit and a relatively confined stage, Elliott Squire's imaginative set design placed the orchestra in a triangle in front of the stage, and the matching triangle was used as an acting area linked to the stage, complete with platform set up as the nave of the church, by steps. The result looked striking in repose and proved an effective setting for the production's use of its large chorus."

-Robert Hugill, Planet Hugill
