Kevin Jenkins's fine set shows us one kitchen and garden nudging up against the other. Dominic Maxwell, The Times
Ayckbourn’s direction is, as always, sheer genius. Set (Kevin Jenkins), lighting (Jason Taylor) and sound (Ayckbourn, with Paul Stear) are as witty as they are effective. Clare Brennan, The Observer
Kevin Jenkins' set design is a study in contrast and subtly highlights the different priorities of the two families. Angelo Irving, The Stage
Kevin Jenkins, the designer; Jason Taylor, lighting designer, and Paul Stear, associate sound designer, bring more talent to this excellent production: it’s no mean feat to recreate two kitchens and gardens, different weather conditions and a bombing raid on one smallish, round stage. Eve Luddington, On Magazine
The play benefits from a stunningly realistic set (or sets given the dual design which goes on) from Kevin Jenkins. John Chapman, 2ndfrombottom
