"The sound design is superb. Mixing modern with classical in the first act, and an increasingly tense, more subtle soundscape in the second enriches the flow of action and the build-up to the powerful final moments."

5 stars out of 5.

Oz Baby Boomers

"Set to a dance-music score and rather electronic sound design (Alan John and Nate Edmondson), the bass beat from the party scene suddenly becomes Romeo and Juliet’s fast-beating hearts in a startlingly fresh moment of sonic poetry. There are moments in the score which seem to be imbued with something akin to Sigur Rós’ lyricism, and it perfectly captures the giddiness, the head-over-heels nature of Romeo and Juliet’s attraction to each other, at the same time as hinting at something darker to come."

4.5 stars out of 5.
