I have collected a few of the DRS ads for my scrap book. Can't remember them now, but there have been some funny ones. oo, "Best Score! (Yankees: 10, Red Sox: 0). I think that was a joke for John cause he loves the red sox.
like this:

or here is the pic with John's gift. unfortunately, can't read them all:

-Dre- You must remember all the same that at the crux of every game is knowing when it's time to leave the table... And it's important to be artful in your exit. No turning back, you must accept the con is done... It was a ball, it was a blast. And it's a shame it couldn't last. But every chapter has to end, you must agree.

There's a special kind of people known as show people. We live in a world full of dreams. Sometimes we're not too certain what's false and what's real. But we're seldom in doubt about what we feel.

Posted: 5/28/06 at 8:48pmI like Wicked, Phantom, and Hairspray Playbill/ad. They really explain the shows.
Just because I got the lead doesn't mean you can't be my understudy!:)

My all time favorites are the ones from the 1900's where they had the name of the theatre on the front and not the show. I love the Music Box theatre's playbill.
My favorite modern day playbills are Les Mis and All Shook Up. I also like Barefoot in the Park's.
Ha. Poodle in the Piazza I laughing so hard I can't breathe.

The Q logo is great I think!!! It's simple but pops, and it's soooo recognizable and all. I also think the old RENT letters and logo are good because they give the feel of the show... and what so many others said: the LITP logo is so classy!
oh and spelling bee. with the kids in the chairs... but it changed it used to be different.

I've always loved the "You haven't seen?" poster from DRS. Every time I see it, I crack up laughing.
I also love the new poster for Sweeney Todd, all of The History Boys posters (can that cast get any more gorgeous?), and the CD cover for Piazza.
A little swash, a bit of buckle - you'll love it more than bread.

Posted: 5/29/06 at 8:48pmThis isn't an add, but I love how both the original cast recording of Sweet Charity and the Debbie Allen revival recording have Gwen Verdon and Debbie Allen in the same pose on the cover
There's a lot I am not certain of...

Posted: 5/29/06 at 9:27pmI love the alternative Sweeney revival poster. Not the one with the razor, but the one with Cerveris and LuPone on it. I have asked everywhere if I can buy it but it is advertising only. If you ever seen an empty ad frame where a Sweeney poster used to be, you'll know what happened to it...

Posted: 5/29/06 at 9:33pmMiss Saigon, Chorus Line, and Chicago are all terrific. I have many other favorites, but those are just excellent, completely capturing the feel of the productions.

...What happened next, was stranger still, a woman breathless and afraid, appeared out of the night, completely dressed in white. She had a secret she would tell, of one who had mistreated her. Her face and frightened gaze, my mind cannot erase...But then she ran from view. She looked so much like you...
