I love that they don't have a theater listed.

I think it's pretty subtle. Not bad at all.

Looks like something that would eb on a Studio Cast Recording you could buy for $6.00 at Wal-Mart.

It reminds me of School House Rock.

I think they just need to stick with the old logo.

it should have a black backround or just black around the pink

The pink should have been red. It looks a little middle-school-ish.

It sets the tone for the production...

It looks very cheesy. Did that take, what, five minutes on the computer? Honestly.

It looks very cheesy.

The whole concept is "cheesy" so why shouldn't the logo be "cheesy"?

MimiLovesRoger, I agree. They should just slap "Jr." right under it.

Looks like a logo you'd see for toothpaste or something in the 1950s. Maybe that's what the producers are going for, but I'd give it a big thumbs down.

"The pink should have been red."
But the girls ARE called the PINK Ladies...

"Looks like a logo you'd see for toothpaste or something in the 1950s"
And, the show IS set in the 50's, so it's appropriate.

I don't even care. I don't care about the show to care about the logo. It's a gimmick production anyway.

How can they sell tickets without announcing the theatre?

It doesn't look like any thought was put into the logo, it just doesn't really look right. The producers don't seem to be putting any effort into anything so far.

It doesn't look finished to me. Maybe it's temporary. Or, maybe, they will keep the same idea but add pictures of the Danny and Sandy cast from the show to the logo.

Just a thought...

I think musicman is right on. You can bet that any advertising for this show is going to very prominently feature the soon-to-be-famous faces of the Danny and Sandy they cast. This is one of those cases where creating a genuine logo or clever piece of artwork would work against the show's central piece of marketing.

I can't say I love it, but given the fact that they are casting the production on TV, I'm not holding my breath for anything related to the show surfacing as high art.
