“Moro’s lighting design created that world of terrifying puppets floating around as ghosts in a nightmarish world. No light filters into the audience. The characters that appear in that proscenium space never enter, they are apparitions deftly transported by the light, the light that defines not only their movements but the space around them. That use of light in such a precise and creative manner, gave us insights into its function that we never suspected. It was truly marvellous.” Capital Critics Circle, Ottawa
