“Kevan Loney’s projections and Lee Fiskness’ lighting design breathe life into Kevin Depinet’s open set as the cast of “An American in Paris” kicks up its heels in the Drury Lane Theatre’s dazzling production.” By Catey Sullivan Chicago Sun-Times

“Kurdziel-Formato's beautiful staging hums along with wonderful dancing and costume designer Karl Green's fashion-forward period costumes. Set designer Kevin Depinet, lighting designer Lee Fiskness and projection designer Kevan Loney work well in tandem to conjure the beauty of a rebounding, recently liberated Paris.” Scott C. Morgan - Daily Herald

“Visually enhanced by Karl Green’s stunning, eye-popping costumes, Emily Young’s period hair and wigs and a multilayered Impressionist scenic design by Kevin Depinet, the production is artistically amplified by Lee Fiskness’ dazzling lighting, and some unbelievable moving projections by Kevan Loney, this jaw-dropping production is a feast for both the eyes and ears.” Colin Douglas -  ChicagoTheatreReview.com

 “Gorgeous, cinematic scenic and projection designs created by Kevin Depinet and Kevan Loney are complemented by sculptural, dramatic lighting from Lee Fiskness. Critics say that a lot, “cinematic,” but this design team really knocked it out of the park, capturing something that feels like an enormous soundstage—like the one in which the original “An American in Paris” was filmed as a movie musical in 1951.” Lauren Warnecke- Art Intercepts

“The clean lines of Kevin Depinet’s scenic design are awash in elegant lighting (Lee Fiskness) highlighting Karl Green’s stunning costumes against rich, colorful projections (Kevan Loney). It all comes together beautifully as the story within the story culminates with the “An American in Paris” ballet sequence, when Esty and Drake knock this show out of the park.“ Ed Tracy - PickinSix Review
