Where did Passion play in New York?
That's the marquee from London's Queen's theatre.
In NYC, it played at what is now the Schonefeld.

Gotta love those West End marquees, so simple and classy. They don't clutter the outside of the theater and they actually fit with the architecture.
Thanks BrodyFosse123. I can never post a picture here for some reason. I also loved the marquee of Sweeney Todd (OBC and recent Revival).

Every Marquee in London is gorgeously heart pumping. They are exciting to look at, because they are just beautiful with those old and lovely theatres!

2 stand out. The original marquee of "A Chorus Line" at the Shubert. I have a picture somewhere. I'll scan it and add it later.
The second was the original marquee for "Into the Woods" with the boot hanging off the Martin Beck.
I also liked the Seussical marquee.
Here ya go Larry...kind of lame and stylized though.
I love this thread! Keep 'em comin!!!!!!!!!
Just for sheer size, Wicked in London:
Guys and Dolls:
Avenue Q
I've got most of the current West End theatre marquees in my fan photos...

I think that the marquees in West End Theatres are much better looking than Broadway Theatres with the exceptions of The Shubert Theatre, The Imperial Theatre and The Hilton Theatre.
BTW, does anyone have a picture of The Palace Theatre (London) with the Spamalot marquee.
