“Simon Corder’s moody lighting, bursts of Bernard Herrmann’s classic scores and the evocative designs of William Dudley, enhanced by videoscapes as stylised as a studio backdrop, add to the sense of menace and doomy romanticism of classic Hitchcock.” – Ian Johns, The Times, 28 June 2003

“William Dudley’s staging and Simon Corder’s lighting have to be on the shortlist for awards in 2003.” – Lizzie Loveridge, Curtain Up, 5 April 2003

Simon Corder was nominated for an Olivier Award for his lighting design and William Dudley won best set design.
