Review:
"Lighting designer Christian Henrriquez approached the white set as if it were the perfect blank canvas, enriching the scenes of wonder, passion, and conflict with lavishly emotive illumination." - Unprofessional Opinion
"...trauma, and Padre Monroe’s potential breach of his vows, find an echo in Clifton Chadick’s set, whose tiered, marble-like surface is gashed by a crevasse. It’s a striking setup, especially when flooded with Christian D. Henrriquez’s dramatic lighting and Hailey LaRoe’s colorful projections: stained glass, religious paintings, eddying stars." - Celia Wren, Washington Post
"The danger is enhanced by the lighting of Christian D. Henrriquez..." - Roger Catlin, BroadwayWorld
"Clifton Chadick’s set design combined with the special effects—produced by lighting designer Christian Henrriquez, sound designer Justin Schmitz, and projection designer Hailey LaRoe—come together to transport audiences to a world that is quite literally representative of the abyss we all sometimes tread."
- Anne Valentino, MD Theatre Guide
