> About the performance:
>
> The circus is coming! The circus is coming! Bread & Puppet Theater
> makes a rare cross-country tour this fall 2022. With performances
> coast to coast, from New York to Seattle, Los Angeles to New Orleans,
> the iconic political puppet theater company brings Our Domestic
> Resurrection Circus: Apocalypse Defiance to over 50 cities and towns.
> Fifty-two years ago Bread & Puppet Theater performed Our Domestic
> Resurrection Circus for the first time at Goddard College in
> Plainfield, VT. Since then, this capacious and provocative title has
> served as the basis of annual spectacles that generations of audiences
> have come to rely on for satire and celebration in the face of
> intolerable circumstances. This year, B&P will take up the tradition
> again, albeit with a timely subtitle: The Apocalypse Defiance Circus.
>
> The show, says Schumann, is ?in response to our totally unresurrected
> capitalist situation, not only the hundreds of thousands of
> unnecessarily sacrificed pandemic victims but our culture?s
> unwillingness to recognize Mother Earth?s revolt against our
> civilization. Since we earthlings do not live up to our earthling
> obligations, we need resurrection circuses to yell against our own
> stupidity.?
>
> After the show Bread & Puppet will serve its famous sourdough rye
> bread with aioli, and Bread & Puppet?s ?Cheap Art? ? books, posters,
> postcards, pamphlets and banners from the Bread & Puppet Press ? will
> be for sale.
>
> Show Length: Approximately 1 hour.

> ABOUT BREAD AND PUPPET THEATER
> The Bread and Puppet Theater is an internationally celebrated company
> that champions a visually rich, street-theater brand of performance
> art filled with music, dance and slapstick. Believing that theater is
> a basic necessity like bread, the company frequently brings its work
> to the streets for those who may not otherwise go to the theater. Its
> shows are political and spectacular, with puppets often on stilts,
> wearing huge masks with expressive faces, singing, dancing and playing
> music.
>
> Bread and Puppet is recognized throughout the world and has won
> distinction at international theater festivals in Italy, Poland,
> Colombia, and Yugoslavia, beginning with their break-out performances
> at the 1968 Nancy Festival in France. Notable awards include the
> Erasmus Prize of Amsterdam, 4 Obies, the Puppeteers of America's
> President Award, and the Vermont Governor's Award. Bread and Puppet is
> constantly active, performing at its farm in Glover, VT, and in local
> churches, schools and parades. It regularly tours Europe, Canada, and
> the United States and has recently visited El Salvador, Haiti, Russia,
> and Korea.
>
> Founded in 1963 by Peter Schumann on New York City?s Lower East Side,
> the theater has been based in the North East Kingdom of Vermont since
> the early 1970s and is one of the oldest, nonprofit, self-supporting
> theatrical companies in the country.
>
> Based on the Biography of Bread and Puppet that accompanies the Bread
> and Puppet Archives at the University of Vermont, Burlington. Full
