On July 25, 1936,

after a five-night run,

the audience at the Park Theatre

in Bridgeport, Connecticut,

applauded the closing night

performance of Macbeth,

produced by John Houseman

and directed by Orson Welles

for the Federal Theatre Project

(FTP)

of the Works Progress

Administration

(WPA).

 

The FTP was one

of five arts-related projects

established during the first term

of President Franklin D. Roosevelt

to assist unemployed writers,

actors, and artists

during the Great Depression.
