Posted: 10/20/11 at 2:44pmAhh, Photoshop. Pounding another nail into the coffin of good design and typography.
Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)

The second one certainly addresses one of the reasons the first logo was claimed to fail by Michael Riedel - that people didn't know the show was a spectacle etc..
I like it. It makes the show look so much fun.
"You can't overrate Bernadette Peters. She is such a genius. There's a moment in "Too Many Mornings" and Bernadette doing 'I wore green the last time' - It's a voice that is just already given up - it is so sorrowful. Tragic. You can see from that moment the show is going to be headed into such dark territory and it hinges on this tiny throwaway moment of the voice." - Ben Brantley (2022)
"Bernadette's whole, stunning performance [as Rose in Gypsy] galvanized the actors capable of letting loose with her. Bernadette's Rose did take its rightful place, but too late, and unseen by too many who should have seen it" Arthur Laurents (2009)

Posted: 10/20/11 at 5:47pmMy guess is that originally they thought Sister Act would be a star vehicle for Patina Miller, but when she lots out to Sutton they had to revamp the logo because no one really knows who Patina is.

Posted: 10/20/11 at 7:14pmI don't really like the font that they chose, but I like the rest of it. The font is just very simple, but I'm guessing they were looking for something closer to the movie logo.

Posted: 10/20/11 at 7:27pmI think I like it...but I'm not sure. I should love the second one, but the picture looks too...candid? I don't really know how to describe what I think of it, but it's not awful. I would just like them to make artwork that makes the show sell, because the show I like, no matter how I feel about the artwork.

Posted: 10/20/11 at 8:09pmA great example of polishing a turd. Why spend the $$$ on new logos when the show will be gone in 3 months? What a waste.

Posted: 10/20/11 at 8:46pmLol sad. But why should the producers, who will lose millions if this closes shortly, give up?

I think it's a vast improvement over the last logo.
I like it.

Posted: 10/20/11 at 9:41pmI don't know if it's the 3D or the shiny or what, but there is something nauseating about the kerning in the new logo :S

Posted: 10/20/11 at 9:53pmTo me. it's overstimulating. But then again, so is the musical. Like the previous comment, it definitely gives me a headache.

Posted: 10/21/11 at 11:48amThe font looks the same as used in the poster for the film, as well as the same placement. Maybe they're trying to get people to recognize/remember it immediately.

Agreed. I think the kerning is so weird because of the 3D...I particularly hate it on the 'ER' and 'CT.'

Posted: 10/21/11 at 9:08pmIt's alright but is Gloriously Broadway their slogan? I get the thought behind it but I don't like it...

I always liked the "original" logo from a few years ago, I'm sure they have different companies but I wonder why they didn't go back to the concept of this.
