We don’t think it would be too controversial to say that this isn’t one of Lloyd Webber’s most accomplished works, and this is a classic example of showcasing style over substance. The style here though is undeniably impressive. Huge kudos must be given to the imagination and pure skill of Tim Hatley (set designer), Gabriella Slade (costume designer), Howard Hudson (lighting designer) and Andrzej Goulding (video designer/animator) most notably. It is a visual feast for the senses and a real collaborative piece, steered brilliantly by director Luke Sheppard.
