I searched and didn't see this posted already, so I'm sorry if it was already shared and I missed it.
The new Guys and Dolls poster: thoughts?

Posted: 11/6/08 at 4:37pmJust add two more wonderful names to the top of that, and it would be perfect! This is such a simple poster, but I love it already.

The 'Guys' lettering is from the 1980s National Theatre production

Posted: 11/6/08 at 5:41pmLOVE IT! Just makes me wish I could see it even more! I love this show! I don't care how many revivals they do. It's such a gem of a show.

Posted: 11/6/08 at 5:43pmI'm really getting excited about this show... I like how classic-looking the poster is. I hope they don't try to 'update' it too much. The book is still great, and the score's still beautiful.

You do realize that those are two completely different fonts, correct?

Posted: 11/6/08 at 7:54pmI like it, but from a distance, you think, "Who the f--k is Platt Graham?"
#18re: Guys and Dolls artwork
Posted: 11/6/08 at 7:56pmI want to know who that "Oliver Lauren" is who's billed above Platt. Costume designer?

Posted: 11/6/08 at 8:14pmI dunno. It is nicely done don't get me wrong, but it doesn't scream 'wow' to me either.
#21re: Guys and Dolls artwork
Posted: 11/6/08 at 8:20pmI'm surprised how many people are liking this artwork...so bland.

Posted: 11/6/08 at 8:23pmFor me, it's less the poster itself and more that it's sort of hard proof that the revival actually is happening. Even if it is only on a computer screen.

Eew.
Don't like this artwork at all, I gotta say. It just seems cheesy and cheap to me.
They should use something in the vein of the London production's artwork.
That was cool...and new and fresh.
