Morning Hate,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a captivating and enigmatic playbill from the Federal Theatre Project of 1936, invites viewers for a good laugh with an intriguing title and an air of mystery. This intriguing poster, created during the depths of the Great Depression, is a testament to the resilient spirit of the American people and the power of art to uplift and entertain. The Federal Theatre Project, an initiative of the Works Progress Administration (WPA), was established in 1935 to conserve and develop the skills of theater workers, re-employ them on public relief, and bring live theatrical performances to thousands of Americans who had never before experienced this cultural event. This playbill for "Morning Hate," featuring the tagline "For a Good Laugh Go and See," is a prime example of the Federal Theatre Project's mission in action. The design of the poster is a stunning blend of color and graphic design, with bold, block letters and a striking contrast between the deep red and black hues. The image of a man and a woman, both with expressions of disdain, adds to the play's intriguing title and further piques the interest of potential audience members. The play's location, "Playhouse," and the tagline, "A Comedy of Hate," suggest a lighthearted and satirical exploration of the political and social tensions of the time. As a cultural artifact from the 1930s, "Morning Hate" serves as a reminder of the power of art to provide entertainment and escape during challenging times. This unique and intriguing playbill is a valuable addition to the rich heritage of American arts and the legacy of the Federal Theatre Project.
