Daniel Evans’s sleek direction and Fleming’s sumptuous voice do their very best to convince you that there may be hidden depths...Good taste is no substitute for genuine emotion.'

Director Daniel Evans and designer Robert Jones provide a slick utility staging... It’s just the thing for a wet Saturday afternoon, but those in search of an earworm tune will be disappointed.'
