The Full Story
The Hundred and One Dalmatians
Set Designer & Puppet Designer
"Transforming Smiths classic for the stage is no simple task. Yet Heskins, set designer Laura Clarkson and costume designer Lis Evans rise to the challenge and do an exceptional job with some very clever, inventive touches"- Steve Orme , British Theatre Guide
​
"The casting of local youngsters as the pups is an enchanting touch and there are plenty of ingenious design and staging solutions to suggest the required 101, as well as to disguise them as they make their escape from the buffoonish baddies" - Lyn Gardner , The Stage
​
"The challenge of how to portray 101 dalmatians on stage is met with the New Vic`s usual levels of resourcefulness and igenious use of staging and props" -
The Sentinel
