WPA Federal Theatre Presents: The Emperor's New Clothes by Charlotte Chorpenning This poster advertises a production of Hans Christian Andersen's classic tale, "The Emperor's New Clothes," presented by the WPA Federal Theatre at the Adelphi Theatre, located on 54th Street, east of 7th Avenue in New York City during 1936. The Work Progress Administration (WPA) Federal Theatre Project was an essential part of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal initiatives, providing employment opportunities for artists, writers, and performers during the Great Depression. The poster's design is a visual feast, with bold, colorful illustrations of the emperor and his subjects, as well as the iconic image of the invisible clothes. Charlotte Chorpenning, an accomplished stage director, adapted and directed this production, showcasing her innovative approach to bringing the timeless story to life. The poster's tagline, "Progress through Art," emphasizes the importance of the arts in uplifting and inspiring the community during challenging times. The WPA Federal Theatre Project presented various productions, including plays, musicals, and operas, to provide entertainment and employment opportunities for those in need. The poster's design is a testament to the creativity and resourcefulness of the WPA Federal Theatre Project, which provided a platform for artists to express their talents and share their work with the public. The Emperor's New Clothes remains a powerful reminder of the transformative power of art and the importance of seeing beyond the surface to uncover the truth.
