Nominated for Best Set Design 2023 Gold Palm Theatre Awards
The play is predominantly set in Manhattan, so I took inspiration from some of New York’s iconic buildings. Additional scenes happen in a Havana cafe, in a sewer and in the infamous ‘Hotbox’, a NY nightclub.
......’The set design by Sonja Fox is impeccable, featuring card suits and dice throughout the entire set. Utilising a two-tiered set with a round revolve emulating the stage for the Hot Box dancers, it was a spectacle to behold when the curtains opened’......Jake Goodall for Bravo Gold Coast.
......’the show’s magical escapist elements unfolded against the backdrop of designer Sonja Fox’s eye-catching set dotted with large tell-tale dice’....Review by Douglas Kennedy for Gold Coast Theatre Alliance.
