EDITORS COMMENTS
This poster announces the presentation of George Bernard Shaw's three-act comedy, "Captain Brassbound's Conversion," produced by the Federal Theatre Project at the Hollywood Playhouse in Los Angeles between 1936 and 1941. The image showcases a bust portrait of the renowned Irish playwright, Bernard Shaw, who is best known for his incisive wit, intellectual depth, and social commentary. Shaw's works, which often challenged societal norms and explored the complexities of human nature, were considered groundbreaking and progressive for their time. "Captain Brassbound's Conversion" is a classic Shaw comedy that follows the titular character, a pirate captain, who undergoes a transformation after encountering a group of Quakers. The play explores themes of conversion, identity, and the power of belief, making it a thought-provoking and entertaining addition to Shaw's extensive body of work. The Federal Theatre Project, a New Deal administration program, was established to provide employment opportunities for actors, writers, and technicians during the Great Depression. The project aimed to make live theatre accessible to the general public, and this poster is a testament to the diverse range of productions that were presented during this time. The Hollywood Playhouse, located near Hollywood Boulevard, was one of the many venues where these performances took place, offering Angelenos a chance to experience the works of great playwrights like Shaw. This poster serves as a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the rich cultural history of live theatre in Los Angeles during the 1930s and the enduring legacy of George Bernard Shaw's brilliant comedies.
