I've been anxiously waiting to see the new artwork for Heisenberg and I love it!

As usual, Roundabout Playbills disappoint because they don't use color.  I think the artwork for The Cherry Orchard looks beautiful in color, but the effect is significantly diminished in black and white.

I love the new School of Rock design, but Alex is leaving in November. Still, love it!

It might just be that there's finally some color but the cover for The Great Comet is a welcome change. I can't wait to add it to my collection. My only complaint is the way they're kind of floating.

The Cherry Orchard would have been stunning in color.

It kinda looks like Schrieber is passed out drunk to me lol, but I do agree the setting and color is beautiful.

@buhbuhbilly I can't unsee it now. I think because of Janet McTeer's body and skirts are covering him, Liev Schreiber's body also looks weirdly broken... unless it was also photoshopped. But I hope that one stays in color for a while.

Looks like ON Your Feet! is going black and white next month...

'Oh, Hello' put their playbill cover up! I like it - though, I'm surprised that it's going with the 'old' Playbill design, didn't know they were allowed to do that? I like it though, was sort of missing the white borders for some Playbills. I guess they've become normal to me! 

Funny how the 'classic' playbills have became 'modern' now - also interesting to note that Off-Broadway playbills don't seem to of changed - only the Broadway playbills. But even at that, some Broadway playbills don't have the old design? Maybe it was an oversight by the Playbill Vault team. Wish they'd go back to the old Vault design - I liked having a quick guide to total perfs, total gross, avg. gross. Now you have to scroll through aeons of ticket details before reaching the no. of performances - and the old technical specifics are no longer there! 

Whoops went off on a bit of a tangent there.

not surprised Oh Hello is using the "old" design, fits the shows ascetics well

Was hoping for more from the Oh, Hello Playbill cover...

I find it looks rather bland...

In Playbill's article on the new playbills for Fall, they show this as the playbill for Oh, Hello. 

 



As @z5 mentioned, On Your Feet is going B/W this month. And... it's ugly. It's terrible.

So true...the new cover for On Your Feet! is really underwhelming....I LOVED the cover since the new July Playbill change. It was probably one of my favorites in a long time.

Why do shows choose to go black and white? OYF was so nice before

I really wish that the B&W playbills had more CONTRAST. More actual black instead of mostly greys that make it seem washed out and as everyone always complains "Ugly."

I love the Falsettos Playbill.

And The Great Comet has changed theirs. Beautiful.

Love Love Love, the Falsettos and the new Great Comet covers!
