Wyndham’s Theatre, London

“The action may be confined to a small space and two actors at a time, but the world about which they argue is constantly present. Paul Arditti's soundscape dextrously enhances this effect. He creates a weave of noise rare in the theatre, made of the small sounds familiar to anyone who has lain awake at night in a city: a dog barking, an engine starting, a crying baby.” The Observer

http://www.theguardian.com/stage/2014/jun/22/skylight-bill-nighy-carey-mulligan-wyndhams-review-hare-revival-thatcherite-play-for-today

“Bob Crowley’s set and Paul Arditti’s sound design sustain an impeccable double focus on the worlds within and beyond that apartment.” The New York Times

“Hill-Gibbins makes his own the mix of contemporary with medieval garb, convincingly abetted by Lizzie Clachlan’s chameleonic sets, Alex Lowde’s anything-goes costumes and the blend of Gary Yershon’s hybrid music with the peerless Paul Arditti’s sound design.” Arts Desk
