David Homes, the distinguished illustrator has come up trumps with the
design for our poster for Raffles of Singapore. David has a wealth of
experience in the Far East and with Singapore inparticular. His most
memorable work in England was for McCallan Whisky,designing the poster
campaign which appeared on 70ft hoardings all overthe country.
The"strapline" - Man, lover & hero! has been supplied by David's
longtime collaborator on the McCallan campaign, Nick Salaman.The
physical flyer will shortly be available on Wednesday 28th August in the
theatre and the Green Room. Take a look at the design on the website
and I think youwill all agree that the design is stunning and not only
captures theessence of the man, but also the atmosphere of the show,
incorporatingall the elements of the Orient and of his beloved wife,
Olivia. Davidtook the image of Raffles himself directly from the
original etching,which is why his portrait is so vibrant. That, topped
with the vibrancyof the colours makes this poster image a real winner.
As this is a "special project" I hope everyone will be behind us in
getting the message about the show "out there!" We certainly have a
wonderful instrument in this flyer to capture hearts and minds!
