Khalil Farah 1) I would choose to make poster 1 as a representation of the play. It would certainly attract audience members to the show because of its emphasis on certain key words. Words such as “rape” “investigation” and “victim” give the play a thrilling element which some members of the population are looking for in their entertainment. Moreover, the collage of newspaper articles gives the impression that past events, not directly acted out on stage, will be incorporated, furthering the feeling of mystery. It also relates best with the play because the newspaper articles paint a fragmented picture, just as the play itself illustrates the fragmented nature of law and crime. 2) Commercials would be perfect for this play. The play seems build upon the drama, as it is an intense performance with constant action and psychological tension between the major characters. This begs for a televised clip of thirty seconds with exciting language, a slight violent peek at the opening scene, and the title in large red letters. It would give the production the image of being a more “exciting” play. This reputation would certainly translate into ticket sales, which is the ultimate goal.
