EDITORS COMMENTS
The Curtain Rises: A Real Broadway Production in Derry, NH, [193-] This print showcases a moment of excitement and anticipation as the Federal Dramatic Players of Derry, New Hampshire, prepare to present their three-act comedy, "The Curtain Rises." The image, created during the 1930s as part of the Federal Theatre Project, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the United States during the New Deal era. Adorning the poster is the elegant title, "The Curtain Rises," accompanied by evocative descriptions of the production. The play promises to elicit a range of emotions, from sentiment and humor to tears. The Federal Theatre Project, established in 1935 by the Works Progress Administration (WPA), aimed to conserve and develop theater skills, re-employ workers on public relief, and bring live theatrical performances to thousands of Americans who had never before experienced them. The poster's design is a beautiful blend of color and lettering, with the bold, cursive title "The Curtain Rises" standing out against a solid background. The play's genre is indicated by the words "sentiment," "humor," and "tears," while the promise of "special scenery and lighting effects" and "music by a W.P.A. Orchestra" adds to the allure of the production. Lou Joubert is credited as the director, further enhancing the appeal of this theatrical event. This poster, a precious piece of American heritage art, serves as a reminder of the power of the arts to bring people together and create memorable experiences. The Federal Theatre Project's mission to make theater accessible to all continues to inspire and influence the performing arts landscape in the United States and beyond.
