EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts a scene from the WPA Federal Theatre production of "The Emperor's New Clothes" by Charlotte Chorpenning, held at the Heckscher Theatre in the 1930s. The Federal Theatre Project, a New Deal initiative created by the U.S. Works Progress Administration in 1935, aimed to conserve and develop theater skills, re-employ theatre workers, and bring live performances to thousands of Americans who had never before experienced them. In this image, we see a colorful and whimsical poster advertising the children's theatre production of Hans Christian Andersen's classic tale, "The Emperor's New Clothes." The poster features a humorous and playful design, with the Emperor, dressed in his new, invisible clothes, peering into a looking glass, flanked by two courtiers, who are also dressed in the same invisible attire. The Emperor's expression suggests that he is unaware of the joke, while the courtiers' smirks reveal their knowledge of the truth. The poster's graphic design is a testament to the artistic heritage of the era, with bold lettering, intricate patterns, and a vibrant color palette. The use of garter belts as a design element adds a touch of humor and allusion to the concept of flattering clothing. The poster's political undertones are also evident, with the Emperor representing the idea of political power and the courtiers symbolizing the power of deception and manipulation. Overall, this poster is a fascinating artifact of American cultural history, showcasing the creativity and innovation of the Federal Theatre Project during the 1930s.
