No one turned away for lack of funds!
The circus is coming! The circus is coming! The Bread & Puppet Theater will bring its iconic circus to cities and towns in the US Northeast and Midwest August 31-October 12, 2024. The company presents The Beginning After the End of Humanity Circus, a brand new show in the tradition of the iconic Bread & Puppet Circuses that began at Goddard College in Plainfield, Vermont in 1970. As usual, the show will draw on traditional circus tropes and familiar Bread and Puppet iconography to draw attention to the urgent issues of the day. Stilt dancers, paper maché beasts of all sizes and a riotous brass band make a raucous, colorful spectacle of protest and celebration.
