A poster for a 1930s play produced by the Federal Theatre Project is the subject of a Thursday morning trivia feature. The Federal Theatre Project, created by the U.S. Works Progress Administration in 1935, aimed 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 seen them before.
The poster, credited to Heritage Art/Heritage Images via Getty Images, highlights the project's role in expanding access to theater during the Great Depression.
