★★★★(★)
"Jana Lakatos’s design follows Penhall’s prescription and underscores a clinical chill in whites. Chairs, table, water filter, oranges are (like patients) tightly contained with minimal backdrop, maximising claustrophobia."
(S. Jenner - View From The Gods)
"A stylishly simple white set, designed by Jana Lakatos, which is furnished with white furniture, a water fountain and a coffee table with a bowl of oranges upon it."
(L.Emmanuel - Community Matters)
★★★★★
"Compelling and emotionally charged... the claustrophobic setting of the hospital consulting room amplifies the psychological pressure."
( Elizabeth J Smith - Fairy Powered Productions)
★★★★
"Tastefully minimal set by Jana Lakatos combined with Henry Slater’s lighting creates instant atmosphere by communicating the harsh sterile white of the medical world while also evoking the cold uncaring system that Christopher is subject to."
★★★★
(London Theatre 1)
★★★★
"The set is refreshingly open in the expanse of the theatre, a simple and effective clinical room with thoughtful lighting to reflect emotional turmoil. This contrasts effectively with the emotionally intimate scenes unfolding"
(Rinreolusola - A youngish Perspective)
