Monesh, Chicago, 1937: A Vibrant Poster for the Federal Theatre Project's Yiddish Unit Production This poster announces the presentation of the play "Monesh" by the Federal Theatre Project's Yiddish Unit, held in Chicago during 1937. The creator of this poster remains unknown, but its design is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the era. The Federal Theatre Project, established by the U.S. Works Progress Administration in 1935, aimed to preserve and develop theater skills, re-employ theater workers on public relief, and bring live performances to communities across the United States, many of whom had never experienced such entertainment before. The poster's design is a visual feast, with bold Hebrew text at the top announcing the title of the play, "Monesh," and the author, "By Jonah Spivak," adapted from I.L. Peretz's ballad. The central image features a stylized, almost abstract representation of a stage, with a dancer in ballet pose at its center. The cast of 100 is announced at the bottom, and the production is credited to Adolph Gartner. The poster's graphic design elements, including the use of color and lettering, reflect the political and artistic climate of the 1930s in America. The New Deal's influence is evident in the poster's bold, modern design, which contrasts with the traditional Hebrew text. Overall, this poster is a fascinating artifact of a time when the arts were seen as a vital component of American life, and when the Federal Theatre Project played a crucial role in making theater accessible to a wider audience.
