The company's performances are described by The New York <br /> Times as "a spectacle for the heart and soul." <br /> Bread & Puppet was founded by Peter Schumann, German born artist-dancer, in 1963, and for the <br /> next decade his giant puppets figured prominently in anti-Vietnam-War demonstrations in New York <br /> City, Washington DC and other cities in the US and abroad. Indoor performances were both simpler <br /> and more complex, ranging from quiet, intense masked shows ("Fire", "Man Says Good-Bye") with <br /> 4-6 players, to huge, lengthy spectacles ("Cry of the People"). <br /> In 1970, an invitation from Vermont's Goddard College to be theater-in-residence facilitated a <br /> longed-for change to country life. "Our Domestic Resurrection Circus," an outdoor festival of music, <br /> art, puppetry and pageantry, began then, and ran almost every summer, growing to crowds of tens <br /> of thousands, until 1998. Since then, a smaller (but with giant puppets intact), more dispersed <br /> version continues on Sundays in July and August; the company continues touring and workshopping <br /> in the rest of the year in New England and around the globe; and Schumann continues as director <br /> and artist— and breadbaker—with a vengeance! <br /> For more information, please visit www.breadandpuppet.org. <br /> Programs at The ArtsCenter are supported in part by Brooks Pierce, Chapel Hill Restaurant <br /> Group, Giorgios Hospitality Group, The North Carolina Arts Council, The Orange County Arts <br /> Commission, and Tony Hall and Associates. <br /> MT__ <br /> 77! <br /> waw <br /> CARD <br /> co y Hospitality Group <br /> www.nearts.org reslau rants <br /> TO i I <br /> i <br /> " A-I <br /> 1--7 _. . ..-_�5 - DR�iXOE DQU4TY ANT$ <br /> A1 J S 0 G I A T E euxeiasinu <br /> B R <br /> PIERCE <br /> POUNDED 189? <br /> The ArtsCenter is a non-profit teaching and presenting organization founded in 1974.
