In this episode of FDR and the New Deal Explained, Lucas and Luna dive into the Federal Theatre Project, one of the most innovative and controversial programs of the Works Progress Administration. They explore how Hallie Flanagan, a theater professor from Vassar, was tapped to lead a nationwide effort to put unemployed theater professionals back to work. The conversation covers the project's groundbreaking productions, including the Living Newspaper series that dramatized current events, and the racially integrated productions that challenged segregation. Lucas details the political backlash that led to the project's demise, including the House Un-American Activities Committee's investigation and accusations of communist propaganda. Listeners will learn about specific plays like 'The Cradle Will Rock' and 'Triple-A Plowed Under,' the project's impact on American theater, and its role in the broader culture wars of the 1930s. The episode ends with a reflection on the tension between government-funded art and free expression, a debate that continues today. #FederalTheatreProject #HallieFlanagan #NewDealArts #LivingNewspaper #TheCradleWillRock #WPA #OrsonWelles #JohnHouseman #NegroTheatreProject #HUAC #WorksProgressAdministration #GreatDepression #1930sTheater #CulturalPolicy #FexingoHistory #History #NorthAmerica #USHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
