"Benjamin Olsen’s set design of a New York City courtroom is both grungy and yet a reminder of the huge importance of the jury system in this country..."

Kay Kipling, Sarasota Magazine

​

"Benjamin Olsen’s mercurial set design serves this musical’s world-building. On the ceiling: rows of steel girders with industrial lights. Back stage: a painted backdrop of towering “Metropolis”-style skyscrapers. Center stage: a huge turntable with a long conference table on top. The director puts it all to work. Throughout the angry action, Rothstein uses the chairs for bits of business, and constantly turns things around. Nothing’s certain; nothing stays in place."
