EDITORS COMMENTS
a chilling theatrical production presented by the Federal Theatre Project, made its way to the Lobero Theatre in Santa Barbara, California, in 1936. This haunting poster, a relic from the sensational Los Angeles run of the show, captures the intrigue and suspense that drew audiences to the Federal Road Show Attraction. The poster's design is simple yet striking. At its center, a hooded figure looms over an image of a man, casting an ominous shadow. The figure's outstretched hand seems to beckon, inviting the viewer into a world of mystery and intrigue. The title of the play, "The Devil Passes," is boldly emblazoned across the top, while the subtitle, "Direct from the Federal Theatre Project," assures audiences that they are in for an authentic and official theatrical experience. The Federal Theatre Project, a New Deal initiative, was established in 1935 to provide employment for actors, writers, and technicians during the Great Depression. The project aimed to bring live theatre to communities across the country, making it accessible to people who might not otherwise have had the opportunity to attend. "The Devil Passes" was one of many productions that traveled the country as part of the Federal Road Show, bringing the thrill of live theatre to towns and cities along the way. This poster is a testament to the power of theatrical marketing and the enduring appeal of a good story. It invites us to imagine the excitement of attending a live performance of "The Devil Passes," to feel the chill of fear as the hooded figure looms over the stage, and to be transported to a world of mystery and intrigue. The Federal Theatre Project may be a thing of the past, but the memories and experiences it created live on, captured in posters like this one.
