This is a vintage poster advertising a performance by the Federal Dance Theatre. The poster features a dynamic, stylized composition of figures depicted in shades of black, orange, and red against a gray background. The figures are clustered together in a swirling arrangement, suggesting movement and energy. A large, curved black shape forms the backdrop for the figures, and a bold, diagonally oriented text element dominates the upper right portion of the poster. The text reads: “SALUT AU MONDE” and “Adapted from a poem of that name.” Below the figures, further text identifies the production credits, including “Choreography and Direction by Tamiris”, “Music composed by Genevieve Pitot”, and “Costumes designed by Robert Byrne”, and “Don Oscar Becque Managing Producer.”
