EDITORS COMMENTS
This poster announces the presentation of the beloved Gilbert & Sullivan operetta "Mikado" by the Cincinnati Federal Theatre. The Federal Theatre Project, a New Deal initiative under the Works Progress Administration (WPA), brought professional theatre to communities across the United States during the Great Depression. This production of "Mikado" was staged at the Emery, Walnut & Parkway Theatre in Cincinnati, Ohio, between 1936 and 1941. The poster's design is a visual feast, with vibrant colors and intricate details that draw the eye. The central image features the titular character, Ko-Ko, Lord High Executioner of Titipu, holding a sword and wearing traditional Japanese attire. Surrounding him are scenes from the operetta, including the iconic tower of London Bridge and the beautiful flower maidens. The Federal Theatre Project's production of "Mikado" was part of a larger effort to bring art and culture to the masses during a time of economic hardship. The project provided employment opportunities for thousands of artists, writers, and performers, as well as offering affordable and accessible entertainment for audiences. This poster is a testament to the enduring appeal of "Mikado" and the important role the Federal Theatre Project played in American cultural history. Its bold design and rich history make it a valuable addition to any collection of theatre memorabilia or Americana.
