EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of the 1930s with its vibrant colors and playful design. The image showcases a playbill for the production of "March Hares" at the Lincoln Theatre in New Haven, Connecticut, in 1936. The Federal Theatre Project, an initiative of the Works Progress Administration (WPA), is credited for bringing this hilarious Broadway comedy to life. The Federal Theatre Project was established in 1935 with the goal of conserving and developing theater skills, re-employing theater workers, and making live theatrical performances accessible to thousands of Americans who had never experienced it before. This initiative was a significant part of the New Deal, a series of programs and projects implemented by the U.S. government to provide employment and stimulate economic growth during the Great Depression. The playbill, designed by Harry Wagstaff Gribble, features a whimsical illustration of march hares, a reference to the popular phrase "march hare," which describes someone acting foolishly or irrationally. The text is written in bold, playful lettering, inviting the audience to attend the show. The design is a testament to the cultural significance of the arts during this period, showcasing the creativity and ingenuity of the time. This photograph is a valuable piece of American heritage art, offering a glimpse into the past and reminding us of the power of the arts to bring people together and provide entertainment and joy during challenging times.
