REVIEWS for The Perfect Murder
“Any murder mystery has to have suitably creepy music and composer Laura Tisdall hits all the right notes (and definitely in the right order).”
– British Theatre Guide
“Both the evocative original soundtrack courtesy of up and coming young composer Laura Tisdall and the multi-level set by Michael Holt are deserving of praise and are particularly effective in setting the atmosphere and helping to drive the storyline. This is an evening of thrilling escapist fun.”
