A Picture Paints a Thousand Words

Promoting and Advertising our show Take Me By The Tongue has needed a lot of work. From getting our name out their to the distribution of posters and leaflets have all been big tasks. With the help of social media on our hands it makes it ten times for efficient and easier.
With our posters printed we wanted to spread the word around the university campus because we felt that our main audience members would be students as we are a performing at the LPAC which is a on university campus theatre and it is easily accessible to those around.
Our posters stand out with black and creme colour schemes with bold text. we placed them all over the university where we felt they would get noticed.  Our designer put recognizable faces on our poster which also links with our performance. There is Shakespeare and Pitbull , and on a different design of our poster we also have Marilyn Monroe. This mishmash of famous people is surely bound to get the interest of passes by and make them think how do Pitbull and Shakespeare go together in one performance?
With so much happening on campus already for example , sports and society events we face the challenge of whether our poster will get noticed, this is a factor which theatre companies face on day to day basis they need to spread the word of their performance but face other companies doing the same thing. 7

However saying this we have had people comment that they have seen our posters around university and have said how good they look. This has also helped with ticket sales and we are more than half way there to having a sell out performance.
You can also find us in the LPAC’s end of year show  booklet and our leaflets are around the Zing Cafe in the LPAC so keep an eye out.
