‘Teegan Kranenburg’s lighting design heightens this effect, especially in the electrifying appearance of the blind prophet Teiresias, where sharp strobe moments fracture the space in flashes of foreboding.’
Stage Buzz Brisbane | Read Review Here
‘…it was a nice little déjà vu moment seeing the dynamic duo of Teegan Kranenburg (lighting) and Brady Watkins (sound) teaming up once more. Their partnership was easily one of the strongest elements of that production, as it is for this one also. They consistently deliver the right tones and soundscapes when they are needed, and even with a stripped-back stage, their design elevates the performance. Moments of battle, heartbreak and grief land far stronger because of the atmosphere they build together.’

‘Lighting Designer Teegan Kranenburg masterfully sculpts the space with a dramatic lightscape that shifts between moody glow and harsh, unforgiving shadows, elevating both the eerie tension and then giving a filmic touch to the fight sequences.’
