Nothing was recently picked as an operatic highlight of 2016 by The Guardian, The Telegraph, Arts Desk and critic Mark Pullinger.
Fiona Maddocks called it "one of the world premiere hits of the year" in The Guardian:

and David Nice at Arts Desk said "this was a show that worked at every level, begging a London airing (the opera premieres in Teller’s Denmark next year)."
