It reminds me of the Anna Karenina concept album artwork. It just seems so..... boring? I hope the actual production isn't so muted and vanilla.

Here is the cover of the Playbill, which is slightly different still - is that supposed to be the Ocean? It reminds me of a logo for ON GOLDEN POND.

They changed it again! lol.
I can deal with it. I do wonder if they will change the marquee now, because it's quite different from the Playbill artwork.

What is wrong with this one, nothing I can see.

^ I do like the trees on that one, but I prefer the font of the Broadway version. Nunn apparently wanted the Broadway artwork to represent the setting sun, as that relates to the show.

^And I think that's great inspiration, despite the execution.

I've said it already but the Playbill cover looks like a trashy airplane/romance novel to me. It just looks cheap...and the colors are not pretty.

I love all of them, but prefer the one currently on the official site:

so far i prefer the one from the london production best, though it kind of reminds me of into the woods.

The London one was absolutely gorgeous! They should have just kept it.

"Re: The film version of ALNM. Screenplay was by Hugh Wheeler. It was directed by Hal Prince and it *still* bombed. Maybe Roger Corman's involvement had something to do with it?
WTF was Rex Reed smoking when he wrote that review. He compared it to Gigi?!! Maybe Gingold's involvement made him confused because the film version of ALNM *cannot* hold a candle to Gigi."
HAHA yeah using Corman's budget studio was probably a bad sign. Don't forget that Prince and Wheeler had already teamed up (with a score by John Kander) for the bomb Something for Everyone--though I admit I quite like the film.
Then again I'm a huge defender of the Night Music film. It has a lot wrong with it, and is definetly missing some life, but it seriously is in no way the truly atrocious movie its reputation would have you think (films like Chorus Line are far worse adaptations).
As for Rex Reed--I think he basically just gave reviews to see his name on posters. :P I know he was considered a real film critic (though the fact he played the pre op Myra Breckinridge in the film of the same name should say something) but his reviews and blurbs basically remind me of the ones we now get for movies from Larry King.

New Billboard up in Time Square for Night Music! I think it looks really good, actually. Can't believe Previews begin in one week! Anyone see the Billboard on 46th? Someone should post.

I actually really like this one with the heads. I didn't like the new artwork at first, but I have to admit, it looks really great in a sideways canvas (landscape) better than up and down like in the posters. This is on 46th street.

It might just be me, but I don't really like the one mybigsplash just posted. The poster in Times Square looks good, though.
When I see the phrase "the ____ estate", I imagine a vast mansion in the country full of monocled men and high-collared women receiving letters about productions across the country and doing spit-takes at whatever they contain.

"Can't believe Previews begin in one week!"
I can't believe it either. I've been looking forward to this for a long time, and a week from tomorrow I'll be there! Can't wait until next Tuesday!!!

The new artwork is growing on me. But I don't like the "modern" stars' heads on those billboards.
It looks like Lansbury is trying to sell me on retirement health insurance and Zeta-Jones is hocking T-Mobile in the woods.

I love the new poster with the water at the bottom. I think it glows a little more than the previous one, as well. I can't wait to see this production and have that poster on my Wall of Sondheim.

I think it's glowing a little more, too. Which is probably why I like this better. It looks less like a neon bar sign and more like a "perpetual sunset."

Is the design for the actual show different than in London?

I believe it was only slightly changed.

Has anyone seen the Night Music BUS art? There's supposed to be a doubledecker bus with a full wrap of the artwork like you see in midtown. But I haven't seen it! It was supposed to be on the street yesterday! Anyone who sees it needs to post a pic!
