EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print depicts a promotional poster for a production of Christopher Marlowe's "Doctor Faustus," performed at Maxine Elliott's Theatre in Faustus, New York, in 1937. The Federal Theatre Project, an initiative of the U.S. Works Progress Administration (WPA), brought live theatre to thousands of Americans who had never before experienced it. This poster, created during the 1930s, showcases the project's commitment to preserving and developing theatrical skills, as well as its mission to make cultural events accessible to the public. The design of the poster is striking, with bold, red capital letters announcing the title of the play against a black background. A skeleton, a common symbol of the Faustus legend, holds a drum and a percussion instrument, representing the musical elements of the production. The image of the drummer, dressed in period costume, adds an air of intrigue and excitement. The text below the title indicates that this is a Federal Theatre Project production, further emphasizing the government's role in supporting the arts during this time. This poster serves as a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the United States, particularly during the 20th century and the New Deal era. It also highlights the importance of the Federal Theatre Project in bringing live theatre to communities across the country and re-employing theatre workers during the Great Depression. The poster's graphic design, with its bold typography and evocative imagery, continues to captivate viewers and transport us back to the world of Faustus and Marlowe's classic drama.
