You might notice that this month, everyone’s Playbills look slightly different. The cover might be in black and white; it could even have a decidedly ’70s vibe. This is because Playbill is celebrating our 140th anniversary! We have teamed up with every show on Broadway to design four special covers for each show, commemorating different eras of Playbill — and wow, have we had some different looks! Despite the various designs, one thing has remained true in our 140 years, something that connects you with an audience member back in 1884: you receive a Playbill as part of the theatregoing experience!
Look through the designs across Broadway and see how the different shows have been represented. We hope the special four-part nature of these covers encourages you to go to the theatre to get one — you can only get these in the theaters in October! If you want to get all the designs of a particular show, visit PlaybillStore.com to purchase a poster of a show's collection, with proceeds going to Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS.
