It was much on all of our minds at that particular moment... I decided to do a background watercolor in a detailed, refined watercolor style showing a svelte woman leaning back on her elaborate entry-hall chiffonnier. This delicately rendered interior I then ‘violated’ with a crude black-and-white drawing of the ‘new money’ couple advancing on the elegant and horrified hostess” (McMullan 3, p. 18).

In the poster, I wanted to capture the ‘welcome-to-the-fun-house’ exuberance of the musical and its pungent kind of theater—all primary colors and silver moons rising in burgundy skies” (McMullan 3, p. 50).

    ARTIST: JAMES MCMULLAN (1934- ) SIZE: Each: 41 7/8 x 83 5/8 in./106.5 x 212.3 cm PRINTER: DESCRIPTION: “The [first] poster was printed and went up around New York City. The play opened to critical raves. About two months later, a story made its way to me, secondhand. John Guare went to his masseur and asked the man if he had seen his latest play, Six Degrees of Separation. The masseur said, ‘Oh, the one about the blacks? No, I haven’t.’ John and the producers at Lincoln Center felt that this meant that at least some New Yorkers did not understand that the play was about one black character as well as several white characters. It was decided that a new poster should be done, and this one was to include a portrait of the character Ouisa, played by Stockard Channing” (McMullan 1, p. 40). These are both two-sheet posters.

I saw the possibilities in this idea when I impatiently scribbled with a pencil over a sketch to ‘cancel’ a previous notion of having Anna literally sit in front of the sea. The paint-stroke background has become my favorite aspect of this poster” (McMullan 1, p. 4). This is a two-sheet poster. (Contemporary; Theatre; American; Artist: McMullan)

Something about the 1930s and about Cole Porter in particular evoked in me this vision of elegant patterning” (McMullan, p. 20). This is a two-sheet poster.

But basically I just tried to make the harsh underlighting of the match convincing in the face so that it had the effect of a grinning mask” (McMullan 1, p. 26). This is a two-sheet poster.

    ARTIST: JAMES MCMULLAN (1934- ) SIZE: 41 7/8 x 62 1/2 in./106.3 x 158.8 cm PRINTER: Artcraft Litho., New York DESCRIPTION: “Comedians was my first theatrical poster. Alexander Cohen produced the play, a dark comedy written by Trevor Griffiths about English class politics. It was directed by Mike Nichols... As I think about my own changing attitudes and try to decipher those of other artists, it seems that as we get older, we become more impatient to get to the nub of the matter. We seem willing to exchange complexity of technique for a simpler evocation of our subject” (McMullan 1, p. 1-2). (Contemporary; Theatre; American; Artist: McMullan)
