British theatre producer Christopher D. Clegg, whose credits include BETWIXT! with Ellen Green and the first ever full show of YouTube sensation MIRANDA SINGS!, is also known for his fresh and vibrant art work for theatre posters.

As marketing manager for producer Bill Kenwright, he's always on the lookout for ways to capture potential ticket-buyers' attention, so with movie fans psyched for STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS, Clegg devised some new artwork for three of Kenwright's current U.K. tours.
