"Emma Fisher’s transformative designs for The Fisherman’s Son, Don Juan in Hell andThe Revenger’s Tragedy used every inch of the limited theatre space, drawing the eye up to its farthest corners, and inviting the imagination to roam down through the concrete floor or suggestively up through the ceiling."

Emma Fisher’s and Daragh Bradshaw’s set design is a feat in visual art Turning Turtles Breda Shannon Irish Theatre Magazine
A visually intriguing set designed by Emma Fisher provides physical representations of the onstage themes. Colored ribbons extend long and plentifully from an old typewriter. Flashes of red, yellow and purple as they move, changing the dimensions of the space. All elements coalesce in this intimate glance at the workings of our human hearts. SOH Irish Theatre Magazine
Emma Fisher’s cobwebbed set is a refreshingly original version of hell, the half-sunken statues and allusively ascending staircase taking an abstract rather then a literal approach to preconceptions, and her transformative costumes are similarly inventive Don Juan in Hell

Press reviews for Beyond the Barks Work:
Beyond the Bark imaginatively execute this story with a small cast, using shadow puppetry and song...it’s magical and original Sinead Gleeson The Irish Times on The Bright Side of the Moon
This piece displays beautifully illustrated silhouettes used for charming shadow puppetry work, intriguing projected images,..high production values and energetic, actor-led animated puppetry. The overall feel of this piece is satisfyingly beautiful, enchanting, charming and delicate Erica McElligott Brighton Fringe Review on The Bright Side of the Moon
...mesmerising and enlightening.....The show’s use of marionette, rod, hand and shadow puppetry is quite magical and entirely captivating....Turning Turtles is dark, funny and sunny with plenty of tension to bait the breaths of a young audience, humour to induce their giggling glands, and hope to maintain their faith in the ultimate goodness of a world that is sometimes cruel.
