Final answer:
The Federal Theatre Project did not give rise to a significant number of Cuban American plays.
Step-by-step explanation:
The statement that the Federal Theatre Project of the late 1930s also gave rise to a significant number of Cuban American plays, performed predominantly in Florida, is False.
The Federal Theatre Project, a program of the Works Progress Administration (WPA), did not specifically focus on Cuban American plays. Its main objective was to provide employment for theater professionals during the Great Depression and to bring quality theater to American audiences. While it did support a diverse range of productions, including plays by African American playwrights, there is no evidence to suggest that it specifically gave rise to a significant number of Cuban American plays.
