"It is tempting to use the fashionable word 'multimedia' to describe Roger Haines's production. The action is continuously underscored by Richard Taylor's atmospheric music, just like a film. Roma Patel's video designs, ranging from images of Merlin as a ghostly presence to flickering lighting effects, often appear across the back wall of the stage. Designer Kate Burnett has utilised the space extremely well to create the different locations, almost making the smallness of the Library's stage seem like an asset rather than a limitation. The fight sequences choreographed by Renny Krupinski are very impressive, but occasionally seem slightly beyond the abilities of the actors carrying them out (they will no doubt improve as the run of the play progresses)."
