The Curtain Rises - A Sparkling Viennese Comedy in 3 Acts
EDITORS COMMENTS
- Woburn High School, Woburn, MA [193-]: A Vibrant Snapshot of the Federal Theatre Project's Cultural Impact This photograph showcases an original playbill for "The Curtain Rises," a Viennese comedy produced at Woburn High School in Woburn, Massachusetts, during the 1930s. The playbill, created under the auspices of the Federal Theatre Project (FTP), is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the United States during the New Deal era. The Federal Theatre Project, established by the U.S. Works Progress Administration (WPA) in 1935, was designed to conserve and develop the skills of theater workers, re-employ them on public relief, and to bring theater to thousands in the United States who had never before seen live theatrical performances. This initiative was a significant part of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal program, which aimed to provide employment and stimulate the economy during the Great Depression. The playbill's design is a visual representation of the era, with its bold, colorful typography and ornate lettering by Benjamin Mark Kaye (BM Kaye). The text proudly proclaims that "The Curtain Rises" is "Not a Motion Picture," emphasizing the unique experience of live theater. The photograph also highlights the political and cultural significance of the FTP, with its reference to Congressional Library and the Library of Congress, underscoring the importance of preserving the arts for future generations. This photograph is an essential piece of American heritage art, showcasing the vibrant and diverse cultural landscape of the 1930s. It serves as a reminder of the power of the arts to bring communities together and to provide solace and entertainment during challenging times. The mystery surrounding the unknown creator of this beautiful design only adds to its allure, making it a fascinating and intriguing piece of history.
