Wow. I had never seen the Rent London one before. It surpasses the Nederlander by a mile! as far as looks and glamour go.

Thanks for posting all that songanddanceman2 + rytoast.
The New York ones look like total crap compared to the ones in London, but that's probably because the marquees on Broadway have size restrictions. It looks like in London, the sky's the limit!
Compare SUNDAY IN THE PARK in London (Page 3), and the one in New York (Page 9). The one in London is absolutely fantastic.

Thats one thing I really noticed on my last trip to NYC, New York theatres arnt as attractive as our London ones on the outside. I couldnt believe how igly the Gershwin is!
Does anyone have a picture of the Winter Garden marquee when Follies was playing there?


I was in London recently, and saw the new musical about Zorro. This was taken in the early evening.

Same Marquee, slightly different angle, taken after the show.

Not a marquee, but a poster found in the Underground

SP3: The Scarlet Pimpernel at the Neil Simon!

I tried Googling for the "Follies" marquee, but instead was given these wonderful pictures.
