Influence "Laurence Eastwood’s salubrious set works a treat" Bryce Hallet, SMH

The Club "another of Laurence Eastwood’s handsome and detailed designs…" Bryce Hallet, SMH

West Side Story "The stage is enfolded by Larry Eastwood’s towering black, metallic construction of gangways, catwalks and zig-zagging fire stairs…….it is the West Side, a dark seething maze that is both prison and engine room. It is Mr Eastwood’s masterpiece." H G Kippax, SMH
