“On Beowulf Boritt’s set, receding prosceniums that resemble the trestles of an elevated train, a trombone blurts and Luther sidles on, promising us “a down and dirty chronicle/of deception, betrayal and more.” ~Alexis Soloski, New York Times
“Beowulf Boritt's versatile sets, Paul Tazewell's handsome period costumes and Japhy Weideman's superb lighting all of Broadway-level quality.” ~Frank Scheck, Hollywood reporter
“Beowulf Boritt’s smoothly evolving set richly provides elegant train scenes and high class bars.” ~ Liz Keill, TAPinto NJ
“Excellent job of bringing the style of the 1930's to the Millburn stage. The team includes set design by Beowulf Boritt – there’s an Edward Hopper toned diner where Hooker relaxes. The sets are set on casters and moved by the cast much as they would have been in the 1930s. He creates a multi-car train, Western Union office, and most effectively the betting parlor of the con. The sets are amazing. ~Adam F. Cohen, NJStage
