Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Federal Theatre Project was indeed a nationwide program that aimed to provide jobs and Americans with free, adult, uncensored theatre. It was created as part of President Roosevelt's New Deal during the Great Depression. Option B is incorrect because the economic boom of the early 1920s preceded the Great Depression by several years, and the Federal Theatre Project was not initiated until the 1930s. Option C is also incorrect because the Federal Theatre Project was a national program and not limited to California.
