It Can't Happen Here
EDITORS COMMENTS
- Now Playing at the Blackstone Theatre, Chicago, 1936: A Prophetic Warnings of Dystopian Politics This photo print, created by an unknown artist, showcases a vintage playbill for the Federal Theatre Unit production of "It Can't Happen Here" at the Blackstone Theatre in Chicago during 1936. The play was an adaptation from Sinclair Lewis's dystopian political novel of the same name, which depicted the rise of a US dictator. The Federal Theatre Project, established by the U.S. Works Progress Administration (WPA) in 1935, aimed to conserve and develop the skills of theater workers, re-employ them on public relief, and bring theater to thousands of Americans who had never before experienced live theatrical performances. The playbill's Art Deco design, with its bold lettering by Jack Moffitt, boasts the tagline "Now Playing" and proudly announces the popular prices for tickets. The image of Harry Sinclair Lewis, the novel's author, is prominently displayed, emphasizing the significance of the source material. The ominous title "It Can't Happen Here" serves as a stark reminder of the potential dangers lurking in the political landscape of the time. The play's prophetic message about the rise of fascism and tyranny in America resonated deeply with audiences during the Great Depression era, making it a must-see cultural event. This piece of heritage art is not only a testament to the power of live theater but also a reminder of the enduring relevance of Sinclair Lewis's cautionary tale. The unknown artist's masterful design skillfully conveys the essence of the play and the era, making it a valuable addition to any collection of American art or political history.
