NOVA'S SHADY GROVE HPT 1987

Right after the run of LUCY & DESI we staged a revival of one of the original HIP POCKET THEATRE shows from 1977, NOVA'S SHADY GROVE. This was a semi-sequel to the LAKE WORTH MONSTER which was first staged in the Solarium of the MUSEUM OF MODERN ART in Fort Worth, Texas in 1974 and is considered to be the Genesis of HIP POCKET as many of the original members of the company ( including your's truly...) were a part of the cast and musicians involved in that production, JOHNNY SIMON'S master's thesus at TEXAS CHRISTIAN UNIVERSITY.

Above is the Poster and Program art I created for this revival production, utilizing an original sketch ( at the bottom) done by JOHNNY SIMON'S himself for the original program.
