Pretty unremarkable and ugly. Hopefully they change it.

...Ew.

I'm sure they'll change it before Broadway (at lest I hope they will) but ... yuck.

In no way is that an improvement over the film's wonderful artwork.

I doubt that's remotely going to be what the final artwork is going to be. I'm sure they just needed a placeholder.

Sure, if / when the production comes to Broadway, the artwork will most likely be different. But the (as you call it) 'placeholder' artwork for Shrek was used all through their Seattle run.

The musical is rated PG13. For Real?

If you look at the 5th Ave website, all their 2009-2010 shows have similar logos because their ad gimmick for next season has been that it's a season of "technicolor dreams." Each show has a color associated with it (CMIYC is green for money) that then is the logo background with a simple font - they definitely won't be using those in the actual runs of the shows, though. They never have their actual poster art this early.

Makes sense. Thanks for pointing that out, actormcfamous.

All their shows seem to have movie ratings except 'Hello, Dolly'

When did the movie use that artwork, TheActr97J? All the posters I ever saw used this...

Anybody know if 5th Avenue usually has discount codes or deals? Or just that 25 and under rush?

I think I might actually be in town when CMIYC runs so would be interested, especially with Butz and Tveit!

Cats, his artwork is a still from the opening credits when the title came on. Your image is what was used for promotion and all that.

Where is "green" in that logo? I see gray and white?

It was green this morning. Weird didn't realize it changed.

Oh. Good. I just thought I was going crazy. I was staring at it, and I thought "that's obviously grey, right? Or is it like a green-grey."

They changed the color from bright green to blue/grey. The image in the first post is a direct link to the image on the theatre's website.

Hubee:

The 5th traditionally had a 25 or under rush, but I haven't seen it advertised recently.

Your best bet is to become a "Friend" of the 5th Ave through their FaceBook page, and they'll sometimes post up specials that they have on there, but it's usually "the day of" specials that don't have all the time, and usually for low traffic days (Tuesday and Wednesday nights)

There also used to be a "day of show" tickets window in the Pacific Place in downtown Seattle, but they closed this last month, and I don't know if there is anywhere else in Seattle where they do that.

Wasn't this going to be at the Old Globe in San Diego? Did it go there?

The First Wives Club musical is going to be at the Old Globe. I don't think Catch Me if You Can was ever announced for the Globe.

Uhh... the colors have NOT changed.

It is still the ugly green.

No more bright green here. Maybe it will change for you if you refresh or clear your temp files? You're not missing a lot though... :)
