help!
I'm doing the graphic design for a local production of a chorus line and am well.. stuck...
anyone have any ideas or images I may not have thought of, or could post any flyers/images they have worked on to 'inspire' me (no i don't copy)
any help would be fantastic!
thanks!

The first one is from a production I saw at fullerton university in california... Note the girl who played Cassie will be in the Bway revival as Maggie.
and the second, I think is gorgeous.. from stanford univ.

Here's the one we used last summer for our production. This is our cast. We shot the photo the second week of rehearsals. It's the same poses (or as close to them) and the same order as the original logo and poster. Can you find me in the lineup?

Posted: 4/18/06 at 8:47amThe one from the Stanford production is BEAUTIFUL!
#17re: chorus line
Posted: 4/18/06 at 9:29amThe one from Stanford, would have to be one of the all time great musical posters.!

Not that it needs to be said again, but the one from Stanford is definitely my favorite too.
A Chorus Line is a great show - good luck, Nath!

slightly belated... but this is a low quality of the design that was approved and being used for the production...
thanks for your help all!
