That's an absolutely hilarious cover! Can't wait to see the marquee. I love how it is in colour!

Do we know if Playbill is changing their logo for Gay Pride month this June?

Seriously? Fun Home wins Best Musical of the year which will give them a huge boost in sales and then the next day they decide to switch to an awful-looking black and white playbill? That's so stupid and doesn't make any sense.

The Fun Home is cute in color, but really ugly in black and white! How disappointing.

 Beat me to it! "You just won the Tony what are you going to do next?" "Make my Playbill ugly!"

The original article stated these would be released in July.

I don't know what significance the compass has to the show but I continue to find the Amazing Grace cover kind of generic and my brain keeps reading it as Amazing Race.

Playbill covers don't change over night. Any new covers added on PlaybillVault are assumed they will change for the following month. 

Disappointed Fun Home is changing to black and white, especially before all their success and packed houses in the next few months and beyond. I am also disappointed that the theater name is changing from just "Circle in the Square" to "Circle in the Square Theatre." 

Beautiful has awful artwork in the beginning and their second go around last year was absolutely... beautiful (zinger). Disappointed their third go around is back to... not so beautiful.

I know that was expected to be the Hamilton Playbill, but still its artwork is simply amazing and so interesting. Get used to that artwork because you're going to be seeing it for years (hopefully) like Wicked, The Lion King, and The Book of Mormon.

 This is the nicest black and white Playbill I've seen in a while. Hopefully it looks this good in person.

I'm glad the Spring Awakening playbill isn't just that horrendous logo they've been using as promotion.

I think it's brilliant the way they've incorporated the ASL theme into the playbill design of Spring Awakening. For those of you who don't know, the arms crossed over the chest is ASL for "love."

The Spring Awakening cover looks really good in black and white. Cannot wait for this production!
