The Dramatist : Before & After

The Dramatist is a monthly publication for the Dramatists Guild, the national trade association of playwirghts, composers, lyricists & librettists. They contacted us to do an illustration for their Jan/Feb 2020 issue called “Before & After” which features information all dramatists should consider before they begin writing and after they’ve finished.

We created a play on “Which came first: the chicken or the egg?” This is, of course, the classic metaphor describing situations where it’s not clear which of two events should be considered the cause. Our popular letters from 36 Days of Type were also licensed for use as initial caps throughout the magazine.
