“this is a visually and aurally stunning experience, the whole spectacle is immaculately lit with some of the best technical work to be seen on the Fringe”
Edinburgh Spotlight
“Smoke and Mirrors gives Edwardian music hall a modern makeover with its 21st-century production values and a dash of existential despair”
Lyn Gardner, The Guardian
“Immersed in a festival so keen and/or pressured to shock in increasingly far-fetched ways, it is refreshing indeed to come across a show that manages to surprise, amaze and woo its audience by using old-fashioned talent and techniques enhanced with a unique narrative, unrivalled physicality, an impeccable score and exceptional lighting.”
Alison Grieve, Edinburgh Festivals Magazine
