will the Hair playbill definitly be in black & white.
A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.
I saw Young Frankenstein about 6 months into the run nd it was b&w then. Roundabout always does b&w.
Also - this has probably been asked before - but when I saw Mary Poppins (in its last week of previews on Broadway) it was a "Showbill" --- what's the difference??
"Why not just call it a Playbill? Well, Playbill does not want its advertisers showing up to Mary Poppins and rifling through the program, confused as to why their ad is not there. They use the Showbill brand to signify that the mix of advertisers is different."
"According to Playbill Magazine Publisher and President Philip Birsh, Playbill gives the shows the choice, and they can have color if they pay for it. The black-and-white covers are provided free of charge."
Read between the lines.
"When the audience comes in, it changes the temperature of what you've written." -Stephen Sondheim

Another difference between a Showbill and a Playbill is also content. For example, Playbills have theatre related articles and is a magazine that gets updated issues out to the theatres every so often. Showbills like the ones used for Poppins have articles that are specific to the show itself. In other words, all the articles in the Poppins Showbill are just on Poppins itself and its creation and things of that nature rather then articles about other shows on Broadway.
