A Pageant of Blue Hill, Maine: A Commemoration of the Town's Sesquicentennial Anniversary (1762-1939) This photograph showcases a pageant playbill from Blue Hill, Maine, in the 1930s. The event, presented by the Blue Hill Schools, was held in commemoration of the town's 150th anniversary since its incorporation on January 30, 1789. The Pageant consisted of six episodes and twelve scenes, with seats available for purchase at the Moor Electric Company store. The Federal Theatre Project, an initiative of the U.S. Works Progress Administration (WPA), oversaw the production of this historical pageant. Established in 1935, the Federal Theatre Project aimed to conserve and develop theater skills, re-employ theater workers, and bring live theatrical performances to communities across the United States, including those that had never experienced such entertainment before. Directed by Albert L. Hickey, who served as the State Director of the Federal Theatre Project, this pageant was a significant cultural event in the town of Blue Hill. The graphic design of the playbill exudes a sense of political and historical importance, with intricately designed lettering and a striking color palette of blue and white. The pageant served as a testament to the town's rich heritage and the enduring power of the arts to bring communities together. This photograph is a valuable historical artifact, providing a glimpse into the past and the role of the Federal Theatre Project in preserving and promoting the performing arts during the New Deal era in America.
