New World Arts is an alternative theatre company in northern Indiana. When they produced Tom Stoppard’s The Real Thing in 2006, we were asked to do photography for the production, and we used those photos to design the publicity posters, programs, tickets, and a run of postcards for the show.

All I Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten is a fun little play about being a kid and growing up. We designed a series of print pieces around the show including posters, postcards and programs. The design is based off of photos from the producers childhood, mixed with super-clean fonts and hand-drawn artwork in playful and childish ways. The programs were black and white stapled photocopies, handed out with crayons, and the audience was encouraged to color and draw on them before the show.
Intrinsic Solutions, a company focused on advice and coaching for businesses, hired us to design a brochure and business cards for them.

“After Mrs. Rochester” is an epic play following the painful life of one a writer from childhood through her first novel. Working with the director and designers, we focused in on scribbled drawings and rough draft imagery. The marketing pieces we did involved complex ’scribbles’ featuring some of the main imagery and ideas from the play. The final posters and programs had the feel of being rough drafts, with notes and corrections in the margins of typewriter written and stapled pages.
