Client and Production Reviews:

"His wealth of theatrical experience coupled with his clever design ability and great colour sense always created the perfect moods" Michael Gareau - Artistic Director - "Big River", "Man of La Mancha" Orpheus Musical Theatre

"Mr. Magladry and his crew were responsible for all lighting, audio and technical requirements. Their work was always professional and of the highest quality and this contributed significantly to the success of the show" "Little Shop of Horrors", Golda Feig - Producer.

"...The sets...were compact and economical and did the job perfectly, while David Magladry's lighting showed them to great effect." "Kiss Me Kate" - Ottawa Little Theatre
Bruce Deachman - The Ottawa Citizen


"The framework, especially Robin Riddihough's memory of Kingsmere set and David Magladry's lighting design are highly effective". - - "Rexy" , Ottawa Little Theatre, Iris Winston, Web Theatre Review,

"...Magladry's lighting is effective and bold - at turns the stage gives off an other-worldly, glamorous red glow. When Don Quixote rises from his deathbed, alive after all, the lighting becomes golden, as if the sun has just come out". "Man of La Mancha" - Orpheus Musical Theatre
Adrienne Ascah - FYI Ottawa (print)


"...Much of the play's success too depends not just on the actor's performances, but on the sensory touches provided by the costumes, the set and the lighting of those, and mention should go to Ann Ricard, Christie Bindhardt and David Magladry for their respective roles" "Man of La Mancha" - Orpheus Musical Theatre
Bruce Deachman - The Ottawa Citizen
