"Sound Design being absolutely perfect. There is a real authenticity to PUNK OFF! and this is espicially true of the music."
"As a production, the Sound and Lighting Design doesn’t go unnoticed."
“Alistair Penman’s Sound Design is more than effective in ensuring the Rock Opera’s narrative is clearly conveyed and its fast-flowing lyrics come through loud and clear.”
Sound Designer Alistair Penman ensures clarity and balance across dialogue, vocals, and instrumentation, contributing significantly to the show’s high production value. The sound was excellent better than I have heard at the Palace and Opera house – a real standout. Every word, syllable and balanced so I could even hear the diction in the loud and busy finale songs .
“Alistair Penman’s Sound Design brings epic gig vibes to an intimate location"
“Alistair Penman’s Sound Design works well to accompany the singing and vast musicianship”
"Alistair Penman’s sound design transforms the show into a rock concert"
The Sound Design was perfection. It can be difficult for touring shows to play in a huge venue such as this and lighting and sound can sometimes suffer but nothing could be further from the truth with SEVEN DRUNKEN NIGHTS. There is obviously a team who know exactly what they're doing.
