THE STAGE
★★★★★
Lee Newby’s designs deliver pungent period detail: a crumbling, two-storey cross section of the house exposes mildew and peeling wallpaper, the girls’ bedroom with its posters of David Essex and Starsky and Hutch, and Top of the Pops on the black-and-white television in the lounge. Janet’s scarlet nightie, memorable from the famous photograph of her ‘levitation’, is a visual motif, bright among the beige and grey.
THE STAGE
★
The set designed by Lee Newby, as if the family's house had been ripped open for us to peer into brings the right air of menace
THE EVENING STANDARD
★★
The greatest thing about The Enfield Haunting is undoubtedly in the visual aspect, with Lee Newby delivering a truly sensational set design painstakingly crafting both an upstairs and downstairs of the Hodgson’s home. This design helped retain your attention as your eyes darted across both levels to ensure you weren’t missing the next trick. It is just a shame such a fantastic design wasn’t utilised for a stronger show. Similarly, Neil Austin’s lighting was used to great effect with the inevitable blackouts leading to an eerie aesthetic as parts of the stage are left in darkness sporadically. The strong design aspects are completed by Carolyn Downing’s sound design, allowing for an atmospheric setting.
ALL THAT DAZZLES
