Photo Flashback : Godspell at Papermill~Would the Revival look like this?

Since we are all waiting for new shows to open.. I thought I post photos of Godspell~the production in 2006 from Papermill that would be revived on Broadway at the Ethel Barrymore Theater. Also the revival will feature set design by David Korins (same designer who designed it at Papermill) I wonder if the Broadway Revival will have the same look? -J*

SCENIC DESIGN by David Korins.

What is the hand on the bottom half of the logo supposed to mean?

Ugh! I hope not! I'm not OVER the idea of Godspell set in a junkyard. It's been done so many times. I know Broadway isn't the place to take risks, so it'll probably look the same and have the same idea, but I think they should go the opposite extreme. Maybe put it in a ballroom, or something classier? I've never quite understood the story of Godspell (I mean, I get the Bible stuff), but where exactly are these people? Does the script mention anything specifically?

Bump! What exactly is the "famous" face suppose to be that is used so often in the artwork?

It also reminds me a little bit of the set for the original Two Gentlemen of Verona.

Isn't it clear? He's got his finger up his s.

I couldn't think of a single reason to sit through another production of Godspell again. Now, after seeing these pics, I have a lot of reasons not to.
Thanks.
