Brothers, Los Angeles, 1938
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and historically significant playbill design created by Herbert Ashton Jr. for the Federal Theatre Project, an initiative of the U.S. Works Progress Administration (WPA) during the 1930s. The WPA was established to conserve and develop the skills of theater workers, re-employ them on public relief, and bring theater to communities across the United States that had never before experienced live theatrical performances. This striking playbill, titled "Mason Opera House... 'Brothers'", showcases the powerful graphic design of the era. The bold, colorful lettering and the clenched fists of the title's "B" and "R" evoke a sense of political and cultural importance. The design is reminiscent of the New Deal's emphasis on community and the collective spirit of the time. The image itself is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the United States during the 20th century. The bodies of the performers, depicted in a dynamic and expressive manner, suggest the energy and passion that was a hallmark of the Federal Theatre Project's productions. The playbill's text, with its simple yet effective layout, conveys the essential information necessary for audiences to attend the show. This unknown design by Herbert Ashton Jr. is a valuable addition to any collection of American arts and graphic design from the 1930s. It serves as a reminder of the importance of the arts in bringing communities together during times of economic hardship and political upheaval. The "Brothers" playbill is a powerful visual representation of the enduring power of the performing arts to inspire, educate, and entertain.
