Our director spent some time making promo pictures for the show. Some of them came out pretty great.
This one of John is pretty great. I think it captures Davies quite well.
Here's one of me as Aston:
This is one of Ryan as Mick. It's kind of "Shepard Fairey-ized"
And one of all three of us together:
As you can see, we're going for a 70's look for the show. Why? Resonance. A story with a setting of hard times in post war Britain was something that really resonated with British audiences in the early 60's, but here in the US, the 50s are seen as a time of prosperity. People don't have an intuitive connection between 50's clothing and difficult circumstances. Rather than copying the specific costume descriptions, the idea was to invoke ideas in the mind of our audience that are closest to those intended by the script.
Plus, it's fun. :-D
