Hereford Times

"...complimented beautifully by Douglas O’Connell’s inventive and atmospheric video and projection work."

Back Stage Pass: Edinburgh

"The contrast between the pervasive sweeping staircase in Desmond’s grandiose mansion to the false reality of life on a movie set, is tied up exquisitely with Douglas O’Connell’s uniquely distinct, ingenious video projections"

Review Hub: Palace Theatre Manchester

"....aided by the inventive mastery of Colin Richmond’s set design and Douglas O’Connell’s video and projections, which are perfectly pitched"

The Scots Review

"Douglas O'Connell's video and projection design ... was utilised incredibly well to complement the action on stage. Moreover, the positioning of a camera and light created the illusion that the action onstage was being filmed, as if it was a Hollywood film itself. This was a clever touch."
