Like the illustration, typography is a bit dull.. can you mix it up a bit with some weight or size differences. To be honest the client can't have seen this? with so much effort on the illustration and not on the event being brought to attention. It looks nice graphically but is it doing its job in promoting the event well?

why is the type so small if you can go bigger.
that's my #1 rough-and-ready rule when making posters. when making anything actually.

can we have a bigger version so we can see the type?

your stuff is getting better young man.
type still needs a bit of work yo!, plus the spacing in your replicated 4D needs to be sorted it just looks messy yo!.
Good work you wee poof.

The artwork looks good.
The type, being a poster, needs to be bigger. You can't rely on a catchy artwork to have a good poster. Work more on that.- posters are all about catchy artwork. don't mess with himmonospaced

the copy is too close to the illustration,
the leading is too big.
and why are you making it hard to read the venue name??
also i think you really need to study typographic hierarchy. none of the things you have presented show a grasp of it. ie the text just looks like it was pasted in and font changed.
surely somethings are more important than others.
also that feed logo is TOO prominent. (especially in full white.) i cant stop looking at it. it draws the eye too quick.
also alignment is a mess.. 4d center aligned, copy left aligned on 4d, feed right aligned...
nice try... try again :)

tis really nice rybo, like the illustration.
- drop the copy down the page cos its way too close to the illustration
- the colour doesnt work so wud prob change it or maybe just keep it white and play around with the weights

hey, rybo. i like the 4D illustration! really nice.
perhaps do some more about the type? give it some more space in relation to the image?
- skt0
the illy is quite nice... the poster not so much. as janne said, perhaps do something more with the type, or anything at all with the type. not that i could really see it, bit small for a crit.

Hierarchy, my dear, Hierarchy.
The text is totally lacking hierarchy.
Order the copy in terms of importance and work on weights and size of the type according to that oredered list.
A poster should catch your eye/attention with some (not all) visual elements. And then if the hook is good should get you to read the other bits of information.
So Hierarchy it!

shit spacing and leading, left and right not visually balanced
bigger heading

i think the posters are drab, boring and static.
they lack the dynamism, the energy and the colour of what they should be telling me about - a dance performance.sorry, but it looks like you are advertising a funneral, not a theatre show.
stuff to look at...
