Poster Design Brief

I need a poster designed for an upcoming stage play titled, Come Back to the Five and Dime, Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean.

Play synopsis: In a small town dime store in West Texas, the "Disciples of James Dean" gather for their twentieth reunion. Now middle-aged women, they were teenagers when Dean filmed Giant two decades ago in nearby Marfa. One of them, an extra in the film, has a child whom she says was conceived with Dean during the shoot. The ladies' congenial reminiscences mingle with flash backs to their youth; then the arrival of a stunning but familiar stranger sets off a series of confrontations that smash their delusions and expose bitter disappointments.

The poster must have the following information:

Title in larger font: Come Back to the Five and Dime, Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean
Playwright in a medium font: by Ed Graczyk
Director in a slightly smaller font: directed by Jay Danner

I have attached a couple examples of poster designs used by other companies that I like. One sets the mood of rural Texas with a silhouette of James Dean from the movie, Giant, including a 1950s automobile from the era when Giant was filmed. The other uses a clip of the artwork/graphics used to promote Giant.

This play was made into a movie in 1982. If you do a search on Come Back…Jimmy Dean posters you will see a lot of the photos and posters used to promote the movie. The stage play poster should not have the look or sentiment of the movie poster in any way.
