"Gareth Fry's masterful sound artistry has free reign and immediately - when the sounds of lapping waves begin - you are transported." EdinburghGuide.com
"Gareth Fry's remarkable surround-sound design. Wave after wave of sound-effects - the whir of a harpoon gun, the flap of a sail, a sudden turmoil of water - sends pulses racing." The Telegraph
"Gareth Fry’s evocative soundscape ranges from creaking timbers and lapping waves to the apocalyptic rumblings of some doomsday machine. Like Melville’s work, you’re made to feel that the human and natural worlds are caught in a battle between the heavenly and the demonic." The Times
"[the] sound design mingles the naturalistic with more abstract assemblages so that in moments of frenzied activity we feel ourselves in the bowels of some vast infernal engine." Financial Times
"a weird aural sublimity ... The evening's best moment... Pip's thin voice, and your own thoughts, are swamped by Gareth Fry's epic sound design ... you can't help but feel a shiver of Pip's terrors." Telegraph, Mike Higgins
