EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print, titled "Mary Stuart," transports us back to the vibrant cultural scene of Los Angeles in 1936. The image showcases a playbill for a production of Schiller's immortal drama, "Mary Stuart," directed by Jerome Coray. This theatrical event was a Federal Theatre Project attraction, a New Deal initiative established in 1935 by the U.S. Works Progress Administration. The project aimed to conserve and develop theater skills, re-employ theatre workers on public relief, and bring live performances to thousands of Americans who had never before experienced the magic of the stage. The playbill's design is a stunning example of graphic art from the era. The title, "Mary Stuart," is elegantly written in bold, monochrome lettering, accompanied by an intricate, colorful illustration of Mary, Queen of Scots. The text below the title highlights the play's significance as a political and historical drama, promising a thought-provoking and engaging performance. The playbill also proudly displays the Federal Theatre Project logo, symbolizing the government's commitment to preserving and promoting the arts during a time of economic hardship. This photograph print serves as a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the United States during the 1930s, a time when the arts played a crucial role in lifting the spirits of the American people.
