EDITORS COMMENTS
This poster announces the Federal Theatre Project's presentation of Humperdinck's Hansel and Gretel at the Beaux Arts Theatre in Los Angeles between 1936 and 1941. The image showcases Hansel and Gretel, the iconic gingerbread children from the beloved fairy tale, engaged in a conversation with a mischievous witch. The children, depicted with rosy cheeks and wide grins, are dressed in traditional German attire, while the witch, with her pointy hat and menacing grin, embodies the classic tale's darker elements. The poster's vibrant colors and dynamic design reflect the progress and innovation of the Federal Theatre Project, an essential part of the New Deal's Works Progress Administration (WPA). This initiative aimed to provide employment opportunities for artists, writers, and performers during the Great Depression. The poster's bottom left corner reveals that this production featured music, animals, and dancing, suggesting an entertaining and engaging adaptation of the classic tale. Hansel and Gretel, the gingerbread children by Humperdinck, was a popular choice for the Federal Theatre Project, showcasing the organization's commitment to presenting diverse and captivating works for the community. This poster is a testament to the Federal Theatre Project's significant role in the cultural and artistic landscape of the time, providing a platform for the arts and fostering creativity during a period of economic hardship.
