“Four Sundays in February” is a long-running performance series designed to entertain New Englanders through the shortest, hardest month of the year.

We were hired to create the promotional posters for this series. For the 2009 edition we worked closely with the BannerQueen, Amy Johnquest, to create a poster in the style of an old-fashioned circus handbill. Amy has a deep love for the handpainted signs of the 1930s and ’40s that is reflected in all her work. (The fact that she’s got a thing for Harry Houdini certainly didn’t hurt with this assignment.)
