Prairie Theatre Exchange
Challenge:
Design and develop the marketing and advertising campaign for Prairie Theatre Exchange’s 2019-2020 season.
Context:
In 2019, Artistic Director, Thomas Morgan Jones wanted to explore the theme of happiness. He hoped the season would provide a bright light in times of difficulty.
How could Jones know then that the 2019-2020 season would be cut short on March 16, 2020, during the run of Grand Central Station, due to COVID-19 and cancelling the final production, The Gingerbread Girl.
Result:
From the tensions of a wedding and the loss of a parent, to colonial reconciliation and the power and pain of love, we designed PTE's five play season including print, direct mail, digital and traditional advertising and social media.
