EDITORS COMMENTS
This poster announces the presentation of Victor Herbert's comic opera "Fortune Teller" by the Federal Theatre and Music Project at the Emery, Walnut, and Parkway theatres in Cincinnati, Ohio. The image features a romantic scene from the production, with a fortune teller, identified by the King of Hearts playing card at her feet, captivating a gypsy man and woman. The famous gypsy love song from the opera is suggested by the passionate expression on their faces and the rose in the gypsy man's hand. Victor Herbert (1859-1924) was an American composer known for his operas, operettas, and symphonic works. "Fortune Teller," first performed in 1911, is a charming and colorful work that combines elements of comedy, romance, and the exotic. The opera tells the story of a fortune teller who predicts that a young man will fall in love with a gypsy girl, despite his mother's objections. The Federal Theatre and Music Project was part of the Works Progress Administration (WPA), a New Deal program established in 1935 to provide employment and promote arts and culture during the Great Depression. The project presented live performances of music, theatre, and dance throughout the United States, bringing arts to communities that might not otherwise have had access to them. This poster, with its vibrant colors and evocative image, is a testament to the enduring appeal of Victor Herbert's "Fortune Teller" and the important role of the Federal Theatre and Music Project in making the arts accessible to all.
