Black Box Fire
Filed under:Illustration
A handful of posters created for various theatrical productions that were performed as part of Black Box Fire’s annual Emerging Artists Series. Black Box Fire is an amateur local theatre company based in Hamilton, Ontario, looking to do theatre that is unique and thought-provoking.
Death of a Roller Coaster is a nostalgia-tinged comedy depicting the last day in the life of Canada’s oldest operational wooden roller-coaster as it is forced into retirement to make room for newer, steel monstrosities.
Man Beast Tango is a comedy that examines the animal instincts that underpin human-kind’s everyday actions, and suggests that perhaps animals and man are far more similar than they appear.
Man Beast Tango was a project that I wrote and directed alongside Parker Martin and James Molloy, in addition to collaborating on the design of the poster.
