“ Anything Goes - The Barbican
The dashing parade of gowns by Jon Morrell, the costume designer, adds zing too... This production is a dream.”
“Othello - English National Opera
Handsomely designed by Jon Morrell and set against the crumbling walls of a Mediterranean garrison town in the late 19th century, it presented a relatively straightforward and naturalistic view of the piece.”
