Federal Theatre Project

The Federal Theatre Project was the largest and most ambitious effort mounted by the Federal Government to organize and produce theater events. It was an effort of the administration of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt
to provide work for unemployed professionals in the theater during the Great Depression. This collection features posters, playbills, stage and costume designs used in some of the productions.
