EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts the 1936 production of "The Black Crook" at the Mayan Theatre in Los Angeles. The Federal Theatre Project, an initiative of the Works Progress Administration (WPA), brought this classic musical to life with a cast of 101 and an orchestra of 35. First produced in New York City in 1866, "The Black Crook" is considered by many to be the first successful musical in American theatre history. The Federal Theatre Project was established in 1935 to preserve and develop the skills of theatre workers, provide employment during the Great Depression, and make live theatre accessible to thousands of Americans who had never experienced it before. This image showcases the vibrant energy and diversity of the production, with a mix of male and female performers, including a striking ballerina, taking the stage. Charles M. Barras, the production's director, oversaw this 20th-century revival of "The Black Crook," which was a significant cultural event during the 1930s. The playbill design features bold, colorful lettering, highlighting the show's title and important information. This unique piece of American heritage art is a testament to the enduring power of the arts to bring people together and provide a much-needed escape from the challenges of the time.
