EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph captures the essence of the Federal Youth Theatre's production of "The Emperor's New Clothes" in Ohio, 1937. As part of Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal initiative, this poster represents a significant effort to provide entertainment for impoverished families during a time of economic hardship. The Federal Theatre Project aimed to utilize the talents of unemployed actors, writers, and directors who were struggling to make ends meet. This vibrant artwork showcases their dedication and creativity in bringing Hans Christian Andersen's timeless tale to life on stage. In this visually striking image, we see an emperor dressed in luxurious garments that are invisible to all but himself. The youth involved in this project brilliantly convey the story's underlying message about vanity and self-deception through their expressive performances. Ohio served as the backdrop for this remarkable production, where audiences were transported into a world filled with laughter and enchantment. The poster itself is a testament to the power of art as it entices viewers with its bold colors and intricate details. As we admire this historical artifact from 1937, let us appreciate how art can transcend societal challenges by providing solace and joy even amidst difficult times. The Federal Youth Theatre not only entertained poor families but also offered hope and inspiration through their exceptional talent and dedication.
