“Susan Stroman’s production opens on a rom-com staple: the enviable Manhattan apartment. Delia’s is book-lined, tasteful, moneyed, lived-in — a fantasy of New York, with an almost watercolor skyline. (The set is by Beowulf Boritt, projections by Jeanette Oi-Suk Yew.) The place is pure comfort.” ~Laura Collins-Hughes, The New York Times

“Left on Tenth features the quintessential charming New York City apartment that many Ephron movies showcase. Here, it's a Greenwich Village jewel with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves that feature an Easter egg for You’ve Got Mail fans: the “Shop Around the Corner” plaque. Beowulf Boritt’s impressive moving set takes audiences from Delia’s apartment to Central Park, from the Bay Area to the 9/11 Memorial Pools, and even from a hospital ward to the Wye Valley in Wales.” ~Alison Considine, New York Theater Guide

“Assisted by Beowulf Boritt’s lovely, very efficient set design.” ~ Greg Evans, Deadline

“The watercolor projections at the back of Beowulf Boritt’s set, which is dominated by a wedding-cake-like rendering of Delia’s apartment, display a split between Northern California redwoods and a city skyline straight off a New Yorker cover.” ~ Jackson McHenry, Vulture

“Set against a colonnade of bookshelves in Delia’s writerly apartment (the set is by Beowulf Boritt) and shifting locales with projections resembling pixelated watercolors (by Jeanette Oi-Suk Yew) of skylines and starry nights. The effect is of a modern-day fairy tale.” ~Naveen Kumar, Washington Post

“The scenic design by Beowulf Boritt is exceptional, encompassing everything from a library in a Greenwich Village apartment to a sterile hospital room in perfect detail. One impressive set transformation, when Delia visits a certain New York landmark, is both evocative and beautiful, enhanced with projections by Jeanette Oi-Suk Yew.” ~ Rachel Graham, Theatermania

“Her apartment is depicted by set designer Beowulf Boritt as a wall of tall, cream-colored bookshelves. The comfy-elegant vibe, appropriately, is that of a Nancy Meyers house.” ~Johnny Olesinski, New York Post

“Beowulf Boritt’s sleek but cozy set and Jeanette Oi-Suk Yew’s brightly colorful video projection design add to the rhapsodic feel.” ~Elya Gardner, New York Sun

“Directed with deference and vigor by Susan Stroman, gently designed by Beowulf Boritt”. ~Chris Jones, Chicago Tribune
