EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the excitement of the Drury High School Auditorium in the 1930s, as it played host to the All Star Vaudeville Revue presented by the Federal Theatre Project. Established in 1935 as part of the U.S. Works Progress Administration, the Federal Theatre Project aimed 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 this cultural delight. The playbill for this particular event boasts an impressive lineup of ten acts, promising a diverse and entertaining evening. The graphic design of the poster showcases the era's monochrome aesthetic, with bold lettering and intricate detailing. The top hat and cane silhouettes of the performers in the background add a touch of vintage charm, while the orchestra pit below hints at the musical delights in store. The Federal Theatre Project was a significant component of the New Deal, a political and economic initiative designed to provide relief during the Great Depression. This photograph serves as a reminder of the important role that the arts played in uplifting communities during this challenging time in American history. With its rich heritage and cultural significance, this image is a must-have for any collection focusing on 20th-century American history, the arts, or the New Deal era.
