Group Portrait in a Summer Landscape (2023)
Peter Arnott
Press Quotes
The sound design of Pippa Murphy and lighting design of Simon Wilkinson aid greatly in the transitions between states of varying naturalism, and are extremely impressive throughout.
Hugh Simpson, All Edinburgh Theatre
Simon Wilkinson’s lighting and Pippa Murphy’s sound are integral to the production: the former spotlighting the snippets of conversation that combine to drive the plot, the latter signalling the shifts to the ghost’s point of view, as the sound distorts and fragmented memories play
Susan Singfeld, Bouquets & Brickbats
There’s no mistaking the quality of Group Portrait In A Summer Landscape, the acting well matched by Jessica Worrall’s gorgeous set, and Simon Wilkinson’s ambitious, and evocative lighting.
WJQuinn, The Quintessential Review
convincing sound effects are complemented by atmospheric lighting from Lighting Designer Simon Wilkinson. Their special effects in the ghost scenes are electrifying.
Tom Scott, North West End
Simon Wilkinson’s flickering lighting and Pippa Murphy’s sound design – radio-detuned Nirvana blasting as Will spasms back into flashback – mark this out as work of real consideration and quality
David Pollock, The Stage
