On the Verge


I think images that are more personal for each character instead of the obvious umbrellas and eggbeaters would make for a fun design.  For example letters and a tiara could symbolize Fanny, while Chick-lits and a camera could symbolize Alex.  Mary’s images could possibly be a honeycomb and her essays.  In addition typical hiking gear may also be incorporated since these three women are on a journey.  Objects such as rope, a compass, and a map could be intermingled with the personal items.  The central focus images should be the three journals with the ladies names on each.  The journal moments reveal private information of the characters and end each scene.  Since their position in the play is so essential it seems appropriate that they should be central to the poster. 

Personally I believe that Mr. Coffee is the spirit of Grover.  He tells Fanny that he had only met Grover once on the day he committed suicide.  He knows a great deal of personal information about Grover, which logically would not have been gleaned in one day.  It appears that Mr. Coffee knew Grover on a more personal level yet he relates that he only met Grover once on the day he died.  So it seems reasonable to assume that he is Grover’s spirit to have met him once on the day he died and to also know the abundance of personal information about Grover that he reveals.
