Hamlet Press & Reviews
The color palette for the show is a chilly but extremely elegant Nordic mix of black, gray, a touch of royal sparkle and much fur (applause for David Hyman’s costumes).
Hedy Weiss, Chicago Sun Times
Gorgeously designed…. David Hyman’s lush costumes have a visual wit all their own.
Kris Vire, Time Out Chicago
David Hyman’s costumes have a contemporary frame of reference but make some potent excursions to the past.
Chris Jones, Chicago Tribune
David Hyman’s costume designs range from the historical to the contemporary without ever looking out of place or anachronistic.
Dan Zeff, Stage and Cinema
The gripping sense of immediacy and potency owes everything to the combination of Collette Pollard’s remarkably spacious rock-and-brick set design, Sarah Hughey’s eloquent lighting, Mikhail Fiksel’s evocative sound scheme and David Hyman’s suggestively antique costumes.
