REVIEWS

London Theatre Reviews

The cleverly designed revolving set designed by Emily Bestow and built by SAS works makes ingenious use of the small stage, transforming the space with ease and keeping the action dynamic and visually engaging. Colourful, imaginative costumes also designed by Emily Bestow add to the spectacle.

The Spy in the Stalls

Set and costume design by Emily Bestow is a glitter laden gift with impressively detailed hand-painted sets. Costumes embrace DIY panto charm, with Hook’s enormous hat stealing the show.

The Stage

Designer Emily Bestow lays on special effects, quirky costumes – Hook’s hat is a triumph – and resourceful sets.

The Family Stage

Talking of design, this is an element of the panto that Greenwich always does well and this year is no exception. As usual, Emily Bestow’s versatile revolving set is stuffed with surprises and plenty of sparkles.

ABOUT THE DESIGN

Opening with a car wash, this side of the 3 sided revolve stage doubled up as the Tiki Bar later. A banner covered the tiki header, while strips hung down slotted into the reverse in sections, removed during the interval scene change. Bubble machines brought more energy to the opening. The border was designed like a storybook cover, with elements incorporating things from Peter Pan's tale, like shells and jungle leaves. The main floor design features a compass.
