Reviews
British Theatre Guide
‘Credit too to Stephen Moynihan whose movement direction includes a clever depiction of Dotty flying.’
Fairy Powered Productions
‘I particularly enjoyed the choreographed movement of Bett and Dotty getting in their aircraft for the first time and taking off, this was an extremely effective device.’
Stageside UK
‘A huge shout out to Stephen Moynihan too, for those gorgeous movement scenes that really do take the show up a level.’
Sussex World
‘All those facets are brilliantly fused together in one scene, a danced, stylised aircraft take-off which takes the breath away.’
Theatre and Tonic
‘But it is Stephen Moynihan’s movement direction that grants the production its wings—literally. The choreography evokes flight through a gestural, poetic language of motion: arms arched like wings, torsos twisting in imagined turbulence, whole bodies tipping into the memory of sky. These aviation sequences are less re-enactments than reveries, where muscle memory becomes metaphor.’

The Stage
‘movement director Stephen Moynihan create some impactful visual set-pieces, including an impressionistic recreation of Dotty's first flight.’
