Play Handbill

The play focuses on Joe Bonaparte, whose dream of becoming a violinist could become a reality when prizefight promoter Roxy Gottlieb offers to sponsor him as a boxer. He finds himself torn between the lure of big money and the distinct possibility of injuring his hands, thereby destroying his musical career. The poster uses all of the elements from the storyline in a custom illustrated background, and uses a 'grunge' treatment to reflect the mood of the play.
