Where new design goes to blossom and lost design goes to live again.

Upright Citizens Brigade

Let me squeeze you for a moment on a subject that might vex all of those bloggers who’ve thought of it: time. Post time, original made on date… expiration? Can you post something if it’s old? Can you post something if it was made a long time ago but was never published online before? It’s September 14th, 2009 right now when I post this; consider these things as you look at this poster from 2007.

An annual comedy event named “The Rejection Show” at the Upright Citizen’s Brigade Theatre in Manhattan. — Jon Lopkin

Ah love me some Upright Citizens Brigade. I recently found the first season of this awe-inspiring television show at a flea market in Minnesota for $2. Worth every single dollar. I found out just the other day that the UCB continues in theater form- these posters I was excited to see are a part of that. Stand-up and improvisation.

As for the poster: the letters… the LETTERS!
