EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a vintage playbill for the comedy production "Help Yourself," sponsored by the Associated Students and Faculty of Santa Maria High School and presented by the Federal Theatre Project, a division of the Works Progress Administration (WPA) in the United States during the 1930s. The Federal Theatre Project was established to conserve and develop theater skills, re-employ theater workers on public relief, and bring live theatrical performances to thousands of Americans who had never before experienced them. The playbill, featuring a colorful design, announces "Help Yourself" as a 3-act comedy and a road attraction. The title is accompanied by an image of a man in a grille, gesturing towards a pile of coins, with the tagline "A Farce in Three Acts." The playbill also includes information about the production's creators, including Hans Adler, Ladislas Fodor, and Paul Vulpius, and lists the play as a matinee performance at the school auditorium. The Federal Theatre Project's influence on American culture during the New Deal era was significant, as it provided employment opportunities for artists and performers during a time of economic hardship and introduced many Americans to the world of live theater. This playbill is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the era and the enduring power of the performing arts to bring people together.
