During its four-year run the FTP produced plays, musicals, dance and radio programs, circuses, and marionette shows. It featured the early works of actors and producers such as Orson Welles, Arthur Miller, and Elia Kazan. The federal government discontinued the program in 1939, and thousands of scripts, photographs, posters, and other FTP records were dispersed between the National Archives, the Library of Congress, public libraries, and educational institutions. For over twenty-five years the main body of these records sat forgotten in a government-owned storage facility at Middle River, near Baltimore, Maryland until they were located by George Mason University English professors, Lorraine Brown and John O'Connor.","After Brown and O'Connor's discovery, and realizing the historical significance of these records, George Mason University entered into negotiations with the Library of Congress for permission to house and care for the collection and provide access to the materials to scholars. Many of the materials were physically deteriorating after so many years in less-than-ideal storage conditions. An agreement was reached, and the collection was placed on loan to George Mason University Libraries, with the aim that the collection would be processed, cared for, and used by scholars of the FTP and WPA. A center named The Research Center for the Federal Theatre Project was established at Mason, and a staff of archives and library professionals was hired to process, describe, and provide access to the records in Mason's Fenwick Library.","While initially, the center was focused on unpacking, sorting, processing, and inventorying the collection, it soon concentrated on disseminating the materials and facilitating scholarship regarding the FTP. It participated in grants to preserve the materials and produce programming and exhibitions to expose the materials to a larger audience. It continued to build on the collection by conducting oral history interviews of former FTP personnel, acquisition their personal papers, and photographic duplication of deteriorating records inside the collection, such as original posters, set, and costume design drawings. George Mason University Libraries established its Special Collections \u0026 Archives (SC\u0026A) department in 1979, and the Federal Theatre Project Materials became a collection under the custody of that entity.","In 1980 the Research Center for the Federal Theatre Project was renamed the Institute on the Federal Theatre Project (IFTP), part of the newly established Center for Government, Society, and the Arts (CGSA).","In 1993, the Library of Congress began the process of recalling collections that it had loaned to libraries across the country over the years, including the rich archives of the FTP housed at George Mason University. LC administrators suggested that the collection would be more accessible at the Library's Music Division in Washington, D.C. rather than in Fairfax. While the bulk of the original loaned collection was eventually returned to the Library in August of 1994, George Mason University Libraries was allowed to retain duplicates of many of the records to complement the additional materials it had independently acquired between 1975 and 1994. After the replevin of the FTP materials back to the Library of Congress, the IFTP focused more of its attention on the study of the American National Theater and Academy (ANTA's) work in the Coldwar era, promoting the papers of Robert Breen, Director of ANTA, which are also held by George Mason University's Special Collections Research Center (formerly Special Collections \u0026 Archives). The CGSA and IFTP ceased operation during the summer of 1998.","Materials were transferred to Special Collections Research Center from the Institute on the Federal Theatre Project and New Deal Culture between the years 1979 and 2000.","Collection processed by Maegan Jankowsi and Robert Vay.","George Mason University Libraries records","Federal Theatre Project collection","Federal Theatre Project photograph collection","Federal Theatre Project personal papers","Works Progress Administration oral histories","Collection contains records pertaining to the operation of the the Institute on the Federal Theatre Project (IFTP) and its prior iteration, the Research Center for the Federal Theatre Project (RCFTP).

During its four-year run the FTP produced plays, musicals, dance and radio programs, circuses, and marionette shows. It featured the early works of actors and producers such as Orson Welles, Arthur Miller, and Elia Kazan. The federal government discontinued the program in 1939, and thousands of scripts, photographs, posters, and other FTP records were dispersed between the National Archives, the Library of Congress, public libraries, and educational institutions. For over twenty-five years the main body of these records sat forgotten in a government-owned storage facility at Middle River, near Baltimore, Maryland until they were located by George Mason University English professors, Lorraine Brown and John O'Connor.","After Brown and O'Connor's discovery, and realizing the historical significance of these records, George Mason University entered into negotiations with the Library of Congress for permission to house and care for the collection and provide access to the materials to scholars. Many of the materials were physically deteriorating after so many years in less-than-ideal storage conditions. An agreement was reached, and the collection was placed on loan to George Mason University Libraries, with the aim that the collection would be processed, cared for, and used by scholars of the FTP and WPA. A center named The Research Center for the Federal Theatre Project was established at Mason, and a staff of archives and library professionals was hired to process, describe, and provide access to the records in Mason's Fenwick Library.","While initially, the center was focused on unpacking, sorting, processing, and inventorying the collection, it soon concentrated on disseminating the materials and facilitating scholarship regarding the FTP. It participated in grants to preserve the materials and produce programming and exhibitions to expose the materials to a larger audience. It continued to build on the collection by conducting oral history interviews of former FTP personnel, acquisition their personal papers, and photographic duplication of deteriorating records inside the collection, such as original posters, set, and costume design drawings. George Mason University Libraries established its Special Collections \u0026 Archives (SC\u0026A) department in 1979, and the Federal Theatre Project Materials became a collection under the custody of that entity.","In 1980 the Research Center for the Federal Theatre Project was renamed the Institute on the Federal Theatre Project (IFTP), part of the newly established Center for Government, Society, and the Arts (CGSA).","In 1993, the Library of Congress began the process of recalling collections that it had loaned to libraries across the country over the years, including the rich archives of the FTP housed at George Mason University. LC administrators suggested that the collection would be more accessible at the Library's Music Division in Washington, D.C. rather than in Fairfax. While the bulk of the original loaned collection was eventually returned to the Library in August of 1994, George Mason University Libraries was allowed to retain duplicates of many of the records to complement the additional materials it had independently acquired between 1975 and 1994. After the replevin of the FTP materials back to the Library of Congress, the IFTP focused more of its attention on the study of the American National Theater and Academy (ANTA's) work in the Coldwar era, promoting the papers of Robert Breen, Director of ANTA, which are also held by George Mason University's Special Collections Research Center (formerly Special Collections \u0026 Archives).

Accessed April 17, 2024. https://www.jacobspillow.org/about/pillow-history/jacobs-pillow-story/.","The property known as Jacob's Pillow, located in Becket, Massachusetts, was first purchased by modern dancer Ted Shawn (1891-1972) in 1931 to serve as an artistic retreat. After the personal and professional end of his partnership with fellow dancer Ruth St. Denis and their Denishawn Company, Shawn recruited eight men, including former Denishawn dancer Barton Mumaw, and formed a new dance company based at Jacob's Pillow from 1933-1939. During this time \"Ted Shawn and his Men Dancers\" staged public \"Tea Lecture Demonstrations\" during the summer months to promote the company's work and raise money for living expensese. These demonstrations quickly grew in popularity and would eventually evolve into the \"Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival.\"","In 1941, following the disbanding of Ted Shawn's dance company, the property was purchased from Shawn by the Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival Committee for $50,000 and incorporated as an educational, artistic, non-profit organization with Shawn named as founder and artistic director. The group also built the property's first permanent theatre, with performances having previously taken place in a barn studio, which opened on July 9, 1942 as the Ted Shawn Theatre, the first performance space designed specifically for dance. Shawn remained director of Jacob's Pillow until his death in 1972 at the age of 80. Jacob's Pillow has continued to host hundreds of choreographic works up to the present day, with the venue serving as the U.S. debut for a number of international dancers and companies. In 2003, Jacob's Pillow was designated a National Historic Landmark by the federal government, making it the country's first and only Landmark dance institution.","John Lindquist (1890-1980) was a Boston area photographer who specialized in dance-related photography. In 1938, he began photographing \"Ted Shawn and his Men Dancers\" and became the official photographer for Jacob's Pillow in 1940, a position he would hold until his death at the age of 90.

After the personal and professional end of his partnership with fellow dancer Ruth St. Denis and their Denishawn Company, Shawn recruited eight men, including former Denishawn dancer Barton Mumaw, and formed a new dance company based at Jacob's Pillow from 1933-1939. During this time \"Ted Shawn and his Men Dancers\" staged public \"Tea Lecture Demonstrations\" during the summer months to promote the company's work and raise money for living expensese. These demonstrations quickly grew in popularity and would eventually evolve into the \"Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival.\"","In 1941, following the disbanding of Ted Shawn's dance company, the property was purchased from Shawn by the Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival Committee for $50,000 and incorporated as an educational, artistic, non-profit organization with Shawn named as founder and artistic director. The group also built the property's first permanent theatre, with performances having previously taken place in a barn studio, which opened on July 9, 1942 as the Ted Shawn Theatre, the first performance space designed specifically for dance. Shawn remained director of Jacob's Pillow until his death in 1972 at the age of 80. Jacob's Pillow has continued to host hundreds of choreographic works up to the present day, with the venue serving as the U.S. debut for a number of international dancers and companies. In 2003, Jacob's Pillow was designated a National Historic Landmark by the federal government, making it the country's first and only Landmark dance institution.","John Lindquist (1890-1980) was a Boston area photographer who specialized in dance-related photography. In 1938, he began photographing \"Ted Shawn and his Men Dancers\" and became the official photographer for Jacob's Pillow in 1940, a position he would hold until his death at the age of 90. His photography work was included in numerous exhibits, particularly in the Boston area, and allowed him to form close friendships with many dancers and choreographers.","Paul McMahon was a Boston art critic, photographer, entertainment reviewer, and artist, who also toured with actress Marlene Dietrich for 13 years assisting her in a number of roles, including stage manager and dresser. McMahon and his partner Ralph Hodgdon, who met in New York City in the 1950s, were a fixture at Boston pride parades where they carried a sign stating how long they had been together. When marriage equality was passed in Massachusetts, McMahon and Hodgdon became one of the first couples to marry, their ceremony taking place on May 29, 2004 in Boston's Public Garden. Following their legal marriage, the couple updated their pride parade sign to say years together and years married (\"56 years together, 6 years married\").

DeMille. The film premiered in 1930 and is considered one of the odder films by DeMille (it serves as his only movie-musical) and the studio as a whole. The plot centers around a woman attempting to win back and teach a lesson to her unfaithful husband by attending a masquerade ball in a Zeppelin, disguised as \"Madam Satan.\" The film is known for its strange dynamics and creative art direction, including the \"ballet mécanique\" scene. This scene, which occurs during the masquerade ball, features Theodore Kosloff as \"Electricity\" in high Art Deco costume, along with other dancers dressed similarly.","Theodore Kosloff was a Russian ballet dancer. Born in 1882 in Moscow, he danced at Moscow's Imperial Theater, and eventually toured with the Ballets Russes. In 1909 he met the film director Cecil B. DeMille, which kicked off a personal friendship and long term professional collaboration. Kosloff began as a choreographer for silent films and Broadway shows, eventually acting in said films. His role as \"Electricity\" in Madam Satan was his last major film appearance. With the advent of sound film, Kosloff retired from Hollywood and opened up a successful ballet studio in Los Angeles, where he had a commanding presence in the local ballet scene. Kosloff died in 1956.","Processing completed by Amanda Brent in February 2021. EAD markup completed by Amanda Brent in February 2021.

The Smith Center. July 13, 2020. https://thesmithcenter.com/explore/smith-center-blog/the-fascinating-history-of-theater-programs/.","Higgins, Sydney. 2009. \"A History of Playbills and Theatre Programs.\" 2009. http://www.ikjordan.plus.com/Players/Playbills/index.html.","Dating back to at least the 18th century, the term \"bill\" has been used to refer to printed advertisements for a theatrical event, starting first with small printed sheets delivered by hand and known as \"handbills.\" By the middle of the 19th century, the word \"bill\" was used to refer to large printed papers that were posted in public places and provided information about a theatrical production. The word \"programme\" or \"program\" came into use in the mid-19th century to refer to short printed pamphlets, containing a cast list, that was handed to audience members attending a theatrical performance. However, by the 1870s, the status of these as one of the only printed papers that were free and widely distributed led to the introduction of advertising into these play \"bills\" or \"programs.\"","Seeing an opportunity, in 1884 New York businessman Frank Vance Strauss created the first company to specialize in printing theatrical programs that would be provided free of charge to New York City's larger playhouses. Introducing the standard format for theatrical programs still in use today, Strauss' company expanded the short printed pamphlets into magazine-style multi-page programs containing short articles, advertisements, and information about the individual productions that changed weekly. Known in 1911 as the \"Strauss Magazine Theatre Program\", the publication would formally adopt the name \"The Playbill\" in 1934. These higher quality programs led to a new practice of keeping and collecting programs as souvenirs, leading to the creation of specially produced \"Souvenir Programs\" that were filled with full-color illustrations, photographs, and more detailed information on the productions and performers.","Processing and finding aid completed by Meghan Glasbrenner from November 2023 - January 2024.","The Special Collections Research Center holds other performing arts collections, including other collections of theatrical programs such as the Charles Rodrigues playbill collection, and the Virginia Nelson playbills collection.","A collection of opera, ballet, concert, art exhibition, and theatrical programs for performances and events in New York City, Richmond, Virginia, Washington, D.C., and various international locations attended by Mary Lavigne. Programs include a mix of types including colorful souvenir booklets and Broadway Playbill editions.

The word \"programme\" or \"program\" came into use in the mid-19th century to refer to short printed pamphlets, containing a cast list, that was handed to audience members attending a theatrical performance. However, by the 1870s, the status of these as one of the only printed papers that were free and widely distributed led to the introduction of advertising into these play \"bills\" or \"programs.\"","Seeing an opportunity, in 1884 New York businessman Frank Vance Strauss created the first company to specialize in printing theatrical programs that would be provided free of charge to New York City's larger playhouses. Introducing the standard format for theatrical programs still in use today, Strauss' company expanded the short printed pamphlets into magazine-style multi-page programs containing short articles, advertisements, and information about the individual productions that changed weekly. Known in 1911 as the \"Strauss Magazine Theatre Program\", the publication would formally adopt the name \"The Playbill\" in 1934.
