I assume they represent the animals Finch competes with to succeed in business?

I think Doug Johnson was just high. There's not much sense to be made of it.

It's kinda trippy actually.

I seem to be in the minority of people who absolutely adored this production. Loved it immensely.

I always wondered what the significance of the animals were. Still it's a weird and trippy logo.

^Probably because Doug Johnson designed that one as well. A lot of his original artwork was used for shows that the Dodgers produced in the 90s including How to Succeed, Footloose, Titanic and Tommy.

His best, in my opinion, was the elephant for The King and I revival.

You know, I was just trying to find out if Doug Johnson had in fact done that poster. Thank for that answer. All is forgiven after reading about his career. He's done some really significant work. And the Big River artwork is one of my favorites.

I loved Johnsons's poster/album art for AINT MISBEHAVIN' as well. Evertything he did in th late 70's had that "glistening" look, with bits of light reflecting off the people.
