EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative poster announces the Federal Theatre Project's presentation of "The Alarm Clock," a thought-provoking play by American playwright Avery Hopwood. The image at the heart of the poster is that of an alarm clock, its hands frozen at an angled position, suggesting the passage of time and the inescapable progression it brings. The clock's face is obscured by a bandaged foot, emphasizing the theme of disruption and the toll that time can take on the human body. The Federal Theatre Project, a New Deal administration program, was established in 1935 to provide employment for actors, writers, and technicians in the theatre industry during the Great Depression. Hopwood's "The Alarm Clock," first produced in 1925, was a popular and influential work in the American theatre scene. The play explores the themes of ambition, success, and the human cost of progress, making it a fitting selection for the Federal Theatre Project's repertoire. The poster's design is simple yet striking, with bold typography and a monochromatic color palette that effectively conveys the sense of urgency and importance of the production. The use of a clock as the central motif adds a layer of symbolism, reinforcing the play's themes and capturing the attention of potential audience members. This poster serves as a testament to the power of the arts to inspire and engage, even in the most challenging of times. The Federal Theatre Project's presentation of "The Alarm Clock" at the Mason Opera House would have provided a much-needed escape for audiences during the Depression era, offering them a chance to reflect on the human condition and the passage of time through the lens of Hopwood's compelling and thought-provoking play.
