Horse Eats Hat?", a captivating and enigmatic image from the annals of American theater history, dates back to 1936 during the depths of the Great Depression. This intriguing photograph, created by an unknown artist, showcases a horse in the midst of an unexpected theatrical moment at Maxine Elliott's Theatre in New York City. The image is a testament to the Federal Theatre Project (FTP), an initiative of the Works Progress Administration (WPA) established in 1935. The FTP aimed to conserve and develop theater skills, re-employ theater workers, and bring live performances to communities across the United States, including those who had never before experienced the magic of the stage. This photograph is a prime example of the FTP's innovative spirit and its commitment to creating unique and memorable theatrical experiences. The image features a horse, dressed in black apparel, with a hat in its mouth, as if in the midst of a farcical scene. The horse's attire, along with the lettering and typeface, exudes a 1930s charm and elegance. The image is reminiscent of a playbill or a poster, with its bold capital letters and intriguing question mark. The horse's unexpected antics are a nod to the comedic and political nature of the FTP's productions, which often challenged societal norms and tackled pressing social issues. The image also brings to mind the groundbreaking work of notable FTP figures such as Orson Welles and Edwin Denby Orr. This photograph, now a part of the Library of Congress's Heritage Art Collection, stands as a reminder of the Federal Theatre Project's enduring impact on American culture and the arts. The horse's enigmatic question, "Horse Eats Hat?", continues to intrigue and delight, inviting viewers to ponder the unexpected twists and turns of both theatrical performances and life itself.
