EDITORS COMMENTS
- Shakespeare's Timeless Comedy Brings Joy to Jacksonville, FL, 1937 This image showcases a playbill for the Federal Theatre Project's production of "Twelfth Night" in Jacksonville, Florida, during the year 1937. The Federal Theatre Project, an initiative of the Works Progress Administration (WPA), was established in 1935 to preserve and enhance the skills of theater workers, provide employment opportunities on public relief, and bring live theatrical performances to communities across the United States that had previously been deprived of such experiences. The vibrant, colorful poster invites audiences to the Federal Theatre, where they will be transported into the world of Shakespeare's beloved comedy, "Twelfth Night." The striking graphic design, featuring bold lettering and a simple yet elegant layout, exudes an air of excitement and anticipation for the upcoming performance. The playbill also includes the production's cast and crew, providing a glimpse into the talented individuals who brought this classic work to life. The New Deal era, during which the Federal Theatre Project thrived, was a time of political and social change in America. This cultural event served as a testament to the power of art and entertainment to uplift and unite communities, offering a much-needed respite from the challenges of the time. The enduring appeal of "Twelfth Night" and the Federal Theatre Project's mission continue to inspire and captivate audiences, making this playbill a valuable piece of American heritage art.
