EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Revue of Revues, California, [193-], Santa Barbara County Bowl at the end of Anapamu St. - July 3rd and 4th - 8.15pm," is an intriguing glimpse into the past of American cultural history. The image showcases a vibrant and colorful playbill poster advertising a theatrical event during the Fourth of July weekend in the 1930s. The Federal Theatre Project, established in 1935 as part of the U.S. Works Progress Administration (WPA), is the driving force behind this production. The initiative aimed to preserve and enhance the skills of theater workers, providing them with employment opportunities during the Great Depression. Furthermore, it brought live theatrical performances to thousands of Americans who had previously never experienced this art form. The poster's design is a visual representation of the era's political and artistic climate. The text is bold and clear, with the title "Revue of Revues" standing prominently at the top, followed by the event details. The use of red, white, and blue colors in the lettering adds a patriotic touch, fitting for the Fourth of July celebration. The Keystone Archive stamp at the bottom attests to the historical significance of the image. The Santa Barbara County Bowl is the location for this event, with its address "at the end of Anapamu St." indicated. The poster's graphic design is a testament to the era's artistic sensibilities, with its clean lines, simple yet striking typography, and evocative imagery. This photograph is an essential piece of American heritage art, showcasing the power of the arts to bring people together during challenging times. It serves as a reminder of the rich cultural history that the Federal Theatre Project contributed to the United States during the 1930s.
