Each borough is represented by a different creature: a dog for Manhattan, a raccoon for Brooklyn, a chipmunk for Queens, a cat for the Bronx, and a pigeon for Staten Island.





The Public Theaterās Shakespeare in the Park will become Shakespeare in the Parks for one summer as the 2024 festival travels to various parks, plazas and other public spaces throughout NYC while the Delacorte Theater in Central Park is renovated.
The Publicās Mobile Unit production of āThe Comedy of Errorsā will tour the parks in June, followed by outdoor screenings of a filmed capture of āMuch Ado About Nothingā in July and August. Viewers can even bring the Public home with free, on-demand streaming of captures of āMuch Ado About Nothing,ā āMerry Wives,ā āRichard III,ā and āHamlet.ā
For this special season, Paula Scher and team have created a colorful campaign that departs from the look of her type-driven posters for the Public to center on playful portraits of animals that can be found around the city.
Each borough is represented by a different creature: a dog for Manhattan, a raccoon for Brooklyn, a chipmunk for Queens, a cat for the Bronx, and a pigeon for Staten Island. The friendly faces double as maps of the five boroughs, with arrows indicating where to find the parks. Knockout, the brand typeface of the Public identity, has been modified with rounded corners.
