EDITORS COMMENTS
is an intriguing and historic photograph of a playbill for a comedy production of the same name, which was presented by the Baker-Federal Theatre in Denver, Colorado during the 1930s. The image showcases the artistic design and lettering of the playbill, which promotes the show as a "Comedy by Mary Coyle Chase" and announces that it is "Now Playing" at the Federal Theatre. Mary Coyle Chase is recognized for her significant contributions to American theatre, having written the acclaimed Broadway play "Harvey," which was later adapted into the classic 1950 film of the same name. The Federal Theatre Project, which is credited for bringing live theatrical performances to thousands of Americans who had never before experienced them, was an essential component of the New Deal's Works Progress Administration (WPA). Established in 1935, the Federal Theatre Project aimed to conserve and develop the skills of theatre workers, re-employ them on public relief, and provide cultural events for the public. This playbill, with its monochrome design and text, serves as a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the United States during the 20th century. The image evokes a sense of nostalgia and appreciation for the political and artistic significance of the New Deal era and the role it played in shaping the American performing arts landscape. The unknown creator of this playbill remains a mystery, but their work continues to stand as a valuable piece of American history.
