Turn to the Right: The Surprising Comedy Traffic Sign! (Turn to the Right: The Laugh Hit! Turn to the Right: The Laugh) This vintage poster invites audiences to experience the unexpected comedy sensation, "Turn to the Right," presented by the Federal Theatre Project at the Mason Theatre, located at 127 S. Broadway. The year was 1936, and the Works Progress Administration (WPA) was at the height of its cultural and artistic influence. The poster's design is a striking combination of modernist aesthetics and playful humor. A traffic sign, with an arrow pointing to the right, serves as the central image. The sign's unexpected caption, "Turn to the Right: The Laugh Hit!," adds an element of surprise and intrigue, inviting viewers to discover the source of the laughter. The bold, colorful typography and the playful use of exclamation marks further emphasize the comedic nature of the production. The Federal Theatre Project, a New Deal initiative, was established to provide employment opportunities for actors, writers, and technicians during the Great Depression. The project aimed to bring live theatre to underserved communities and to promote American drama. "Turn to the Right" was likely one of the many works produced under this progressive administration, adding to the rich cultural legacy of the WPA. This poster is a testament to the power of the arts to bring joy and surprise to audiences, even during challenging times. Its playful design and intriguing message continue to captivate viewers today, making it a valuable addition to any collection of vintage posters or American cultural history.
