“Wendy and Peter Pan - Edinburgh Lycem
Underscored by Michael John McCarthy’s moving score and given a starry beauty by Mark Doubleday’s lighting, the result is an exquisite fantasia about healing, about growing up enough to keep the child within alive, and about learning to let go enough to be able to fly in every way.”
“Humble Boy - Orange Tree Theatre
... this is a delightful staging, nostalgic and bittersweet, refreshing as a long sip of Pimm’s.”
“Arabian Nights - Royal Lyceum Theatre
Douglas and the production team deploy animation, puppetry, video and beautiful transformative lighting from Mark Doubleday to convey the most fantastical elements. Technically, the show is seamless without relying on flashy visual effects. The versatile, ten-strong cast are energetic and choreographed to precision.”
