Re-imagining the Catalog
Inspired by the vision of Phil Lacey, the company’s new Artistic Director, A Great Idea embraced the challenge to reflect and update the perception of the Gilbert & Sullivan Library of wit, wisdom, and wildness for new audiences. A Great Idea brought forward a rich palette and made intentional references to the political climates (on and offstage) through the key art‘s poster design.

Sometimes, it is insightful to see the alternative choices, and we share this one because our partner asked A Great Idea to produce materials for an A/B test of creative. We love this, when it's possible, to better gauge how stories and visuals connect with audiences. A Great Idea created an alternate campaign that ran on social media to support ticket sales so we could better target future campaigns.

What is brand identity development?
Brand identity development is the process of figuring out how a brand looks and feels based on its values, mission and personality.
It involves stakeholder input—community members, staff, and leaders—and includes visual elements like the logo, color palette, typography, imagery, and overall style. Together, these pieces make the brand look consistent and easy to recognize everywhere it’s used.

What are the key components of a brand identity?
- Logo: The visual representation of your brand
- Color Palette: The specific colors used to represent your brand
- Typography: The fonts and styles used in your brand communications
- Imagery & Graphics: The style of images and graphics that complement your brand
- Brand Voice and Messaging: The language and tone used in your communications

How does brand identity design differ from brand strategy?
Brand identity design is the visual and creative expression of a broader brand strategy: it’s establishing how your brand looks. While brand strategy defines what your brand’s values, target audience, and market position are, brand identity design translates those elements into a visual language using elements like logos, color schemes, and typography.
