EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of a cultural event during the 1930s in America. The image, titled "Announcement - Theatre Party sponsored by the Millinery Workers' Union to see 'The World We Live In' by Josef and Karel Capek - Mayan Theatre," showcases the excitement and anticipation of an audience eager to attend a theatrical performance. The Federal Theatre Project, a division of the Works Progress Administration (WPA), is responsible for this unique gathering. Established in 1935, the Federal Theatre Project aimed to conserve and develop theater skills, re-employ theater workers, and bring live performances to thousands of Americans who had never experienced them before. The Capek brothers, Josef and Karel, were significant figures in this era, with Josef coining the term "robot" and Karel introducing it into literature. The intricately designed playbill in the photograph showcases the event's details, including the location - the Mayan Theatre - and the role of the Millinery Workers' Union in sponsoring the evening. The lettering and graphic design elements are reminiscent of the political and artistic climate of the time, with a clear emphasis on the importance of community and cultural engagement. This photograph is a testament to the power of the arts to bring people together and provide a much-needed respite from the challenges of the Great Depression. The image serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that the Federal Theatre Project left behind, and the enduring impact of the New Deal programs on American history.
