"Sue Gillespie Booton’s excellent choreography was carried out with the Rose’s usual professionalism and flair, and made more interesting by Tim McMath’s elaborate set featuring platforms and scaffolds of various heights... McMath’s set is believed to be the largest ever created at the Rose, and it was indeed extraordinarily cool." --Betsie Freeman, Omaha World-Herald
"Projection Designer Brittany Merenda, Lighting Designer Craig S. Moxon, and Scenic Designer Tim McMath go a leap above with an amazing set of rolling ladders, platforms and backdrops, accented with some of the most beautiful lighting I've seen." -Christine Swerczek, BWW
