new phantom artwork...

So... on Broadway.com, the pictures celebrating 20 years at the Majestic allude to new artwork for the show....

is this true?

and... if it is, who else thinks it looks like crap and a half?
WHAT?
that's a really big mic...

I dont think that's gonna be a new advertising campaing or anything like that, it was just one poster for the 20th anniversary. And, Phantom is so hated on these boards I dont think there's anything they could do to make a Phantom poster people would like!

Yay for 20 years, but...that artwork looks like it's from: "Days of Our Lives: The Musical"....if Days of Our Lives had a guy with a mask in it...

I do think that it was just for the party and not a poster for a new ad campegin.

If that were the case it would be around the city by now. And, additionally, if it were the case I could see the poster in Shubert Alley being replaced by that. So far, neither are the case.

re: new phantom artwork...

ah. I... it scared me... because it looks like new artwork for the Yeston "Phantom"... and could confuse people... but I'm guessing if you know the difference between the two or that the other one exists... you obviously would know that was the poster for the 20th anniversary performance.

Stick to what's worked for 20 years, kids.

That's what I say.

and thanks, ruthiefan. I love me some Henshall too.
that's a really big mic...

Someone who works at the Majestic posted about it at one of the Phantom sites and said it was indeed just for the party.

Hell YEAH it looks like crap. Glad it was a one time only deal. Give me the shattered glass logo anytime.

It's better than the one with the huge Phantom head staring through the mirror at a half naked Christine, that's for sure. *shudders*

re: new phantom artwork...

I agree, it's not terrible. But it certainly markets to a younger crowd which is smart on the marketing depts. part.

re: new phantom artwork...

Coincidentally, DAYS did have a character with a mask years ago! They did this "Phantom" rip-off storyline. Former pimp Nick Corelli's face was scarred, so he donned a mask and focused his attention on Eve Donovan. I even recall a chandelier being involved!

good thing thats only for the 20th year celebration, cause when I saw it i literally laughed out loud, it's ridiculous.
You're reminding me of people you hear at the movies asking questions every ten seconds, "Who is that? Why is that guy walking down the street? Who's that lady coming up to him? Uh-oh, why did that car go by? Why is it so dark in this theater?" - FindingNamo on strummergirl

re: new phantom artwork...

They need to stick to the original 1988 artwork.

re: new phantom artwork...

So Yeston and Kopit's "Phantom" is coming to Broadway? If ALW's "Phantom of the Opera" is putting out a new logo, at least have the full title.

re: new phantom artwork...

I think it's pretty damn cool, the old logo's been around 20 years, anyone else think it's time for it to retire?
