"Out, damned spot! Out, I say!!"
[Platteville, WI]: Wisconsin Shakespeare Festival, 1982. Glossy poster. Folio (23" X 33"). Very good. Quite minor bit of wear to upper and lower edge, discreet and inoffensive. Item #29166
Annual poster for this professional company that performs at the Center for the Arts at the University of Wisconsin at Platteville in southwestern Wisconsin. Titled "Shakespeare shooting pigeons in the Globe Theatre" at the lower margin, this is a glossy reproduction (image size 22" X 24") of a dramatic charcoal depiction of the Globe Theatre stage, the bottom of the image extending well below the stage floor and the top of the image displaying the theatre's rafters. The stage itself shows a backdrop of a Renaissance cityscape. Center stage stands a male figure, aiming upward towards the rafters with a crossbow. Just below the image, Wisconsin artist BUD WALL (1939-2005) signs large and bold in pencil, dating it 1982. A superb piece in handsome condition.
