London Underground

Well London must have knew i was coming, the weekend i arrive the weather is crap and the underground sections i need to go on close for the day. Luckily for me my friend has lived there since September and knows the place well enough to get around the bloody minefield and get a few photos in the process.

Almost immediately after I arrive we head for the underground back to his place to drop my travel bag off, well actually we get a drink and run into Derren Brown and get a photo and then we hit the underground. While going down the escalator and telling him what i have to do we come across this guy.


This Poster in particular was at my level and more importantly was placed at the very bottom of the escalator by itself, meaning that thousands of people will go past it and it will be the only poster they see at that moment. As you can see the poster is bright compared to the usual color of the wall making it stand out. You notice the person staring at you almost immediately and the writing is big and bold. It also lets you know that it is an award winning musical and offers you a website and booking number along with the theatre it takes place. However this is in smaller writing, most likely because the promoters understand that people are often in a rush in the underground and do not have time to read everything. The promoters just want the person to realise that its the Lion King Musical and then the person themselves can just google it and that is where the online presence of the lion king musical comes into its own.
