Biography
The Federal Theatre Project was funded by the U.S. government as part of the Works Projects Administration (WPA) to create jobs for unemployed theater workers during the Great Depression (1935-1939). Productions included classical and modern drama, children's plays, puppet shows, musical comedies, and documentary theatre. The project was terminated in 1939 by congressional action following investigations by the House Committee on Un-American Activities and Subcommittee on Appropriations.
