 'Frankie Bradshaw - bright light of stage design - captures the generosity of the household: shabby, adorned with the skeletons of ancient creatures, cavernous but cramped.' **** Observer

'Samuel Wyer's costumes dazzle and Frankie Bradshaw's set is no less than luminous with GUM's ancient exhibits in glass cases spiralling upwards, across the house's storeys, while Ash J Woodwards' video projections and Paule Constable's lighting create the almost magical effect of movement: dinosaurs lurch and sea waves swish across the stage.' **** Guardian
 
'Frankie Bradshaw's gorgeous set, a cabinet of curiosities, recalls the first room in the V&A's Alice: Curiouser and Curiouser exhibition,' **** London Theatre
​
'Bradshaw's set design is a magnificent, Harry Potter-ish evocation of a rackety London home that is part boarding house, part cabinet of curiosities' **** The Times
 
'a gorgeous, gutsy family Christmas show' ***** Independent
