Slava’s Snowshow has had the same title treatment and similar artwork for years, so it’s not a “what the f” design. And very in line with what the show’s about.

I’ve never even heard of it, so seeing a playbill with that was quite shocking
The Inheritance has the most beautiful design to me. Although I didn't see the play, I really love the design of the bill. Jagged Little Pill has to be the most awful bill cover in my opinion.

This is where I'm at as well. Beautiful, beautiful cover and I hope it's maintained after opening. Does anyone know if there's a different cover for Part 2, or is Cursed Child the only show running that does that/did that?
Re: JLP, I don't like the design, but I'm mostly curious what they mean by "Our New Musical." Who's the "us" implied? (That's not sarcasm, I literally don't know all that much about the show, just the original Alannis Morrisette album.)

For The Inheritance, I saw both parts yesterday, and the same playbill is given for each part.

Unfortunately, I wont be able to see the play, at least this year because I can't commit that many hours. But the design was like an instant clickbait to me :) it stands out on Theatermania or any other theater website.
WEST SIDE STORY 'S Playbill cover was up on Playbill's website, but has since been taken down. (It's in the vintage, "Rudin" style.) It seems that Scott Rudin doesn't allow for Playbill covers to be made public until the night of first previews.
I agree! I truly don't understand why everyone's freaking out about it. I mean some people who love it but others are making a big stink about how they copied Beetlejuice or something--I truly don't get it.
