Mt. Park Casino... 'American Wing' - A Pulsating New England Drama by Talbot Jennings
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an intriguing and vibrant playbill poster from the 1930s, showcasing the Federal Theatre Project's production of "American Wing" at the Mt. Park Casino in Holyoke, Massachusetts. The Federal Theatre Project, established in 1935 under the U.S. Works Progress Administration, aimed to preserve and develop theater skills, re-employ theater workers, and bring live performances to thousands of Americans who had never experienced them before. The poster's design is a captivating blend of color and graphic elements. A skeleton, dressed in colonial attire, holds a quill pen and parchment, symbolizing the heritage and history of America. The text, designed by Talbot Jennings, is bold and dynamic, with the play's title and author's name in striking lettering. The background is adorned with a star-spangled banner, adding to the patriotic and political tone of the poster. The play, "American Wing," was likely a cultural event that explored the rich history and diversity of American life. The New Deal's arts programs, including the Federal Theatre Project, played a significant role in promoting the arts and providing employment opportunities during the Great Depression. This poster is a testament to the power of the arts to bring people together and inspire them during challenging times. The poster is a valuable historical artifact, providing insight into the cultural and political climate of the United States during the 1930s. It is a reminder of the importance of preserving our artistic and cultural heritage for future generations. This unknown, yet captivating, piece of graphic design from the Library of Congress is a must-see for anyone interested in American history, theater, and the arts.
