Yeah. I've disliked everything here but The Wild Party art, which I always found really cool.

My least favorite in recent memory was this one:



Bad show art was a lot more charming before everything was done with Photoshop, that's for sure.

I don't mind the DESIRE UNDER THE ELMS poster as much because, well...Pablo Schreiber is smokin', and I loved the production.

I've always hated this one as well.

I loved the Into the Woods revival logo. I have that font. It's one of my favorites.

DESIRE UNDER THE ELMS was gorgeous. I had no interest in seeing the production until I saw that. Simply gorgeous.

The A CHORUS LINE artwork, however, was stale and lifeless.

I guess I can almost understand liking the aesthetic on the Desire Under the Elms art, but it's just godawful graphic design.

Egad, all of these are completely hideous. The photoshoppy once especially. But, especially the Into The Woods image. Not at all the tone of the show.

It's not fair to open this thread to school productions, many of which were probably done by a volunteer parent or something. Terrible Broadway posters, on the other hand, have the collective brilliance of top-paid designers and advertising agencies who, for one reason or another, all lose their sense and taste simultaneously.
