Boy Meets Girl - The Hilarious Broadway Success!
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a vintage playbill from the Federal Theatre Project's production of "Boy Meets Girl," staged in Miami, Florida, in 1937. The Federal Theatre Project, an initiative of the U.S. Works Progress Administration (WPA), was established in 1935 to conserve and develop theater skills, re-employ theater workers on public relief, and bring live theatrical performances to thousands of Americans who had never before experienced them. The playbill, featuring the title "Boy Meets Girl" in bold, colorful lettering, showcases the comedic collaboration of Bella Cohen and Sam Spewack. The design is a graphic masterpiece, with a playful image of a man and a woman meeting at the center, surrounded by a vibrant border. The text below the title reads, "A Romantic Comedy in Three Acts," promising an evening of lighthearted entertainment. The Federal Theatre Project, a significant part of the New Deal's cultural initiatives, aimed to provide employment opportunities for artists and entertainers during the Great Depression. This photograph is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of America's past and the enduring power of the performing arts to bring people together. The playbill's design, with its intricate lettering and engaging image, is a reminder of the artistry and craftsmanship that went into creating these theatrical experiences. The image of "Boy Meets Girl" is a snapshot of a bygone era, a time when live theater was a communal experience that brought people together to laugh, cry, and be entertained. This photograph is a valuable addition to any collection of American history, art, or theater memorabilia. It is a reminder of the importance of preserving our cultural heritage and the power of the arts to inspire, entertain, and bring people together.
