Based on the popular children's book by Eugene Trivizas, this new musical by Bret Simmons and David Howard is a jazzy and irreverent upending of the ubiquitous nursery rhyme. Having collaborated with Bret and David previously, I was delighted when they approached me to work up key art that would accompany the piece for licensing in the Theatrical Rights Worldwide catalog. After listening to the demo tracks I imagined the title as a classic Decca Records LP, and that inspiration is what you'll see in the final version below.
