Bread and Puppet Theater, Vermont, US

BiografieThe Bread and Puppet Theater (often known simply as Bread & Puppet) is a politically radical puppet theater, active since the 1960s, currently based in Glover, Vermont. Its founder and director is Peter Schumann.
The Theater was founded in 1962-1963 in New York City. It was active during the Vietnam War in anti-war protests, primarily in New York. It is often remembered as a central part of the political spectacle of the time, as its enormous puppets (often ten to fifteen feet tall) were a fixture of many demonstrations. In 1970 the Theater moved to Vermont, where it still resides; there is a Bread & Puppet Museum on its Vermont land, showcasing its decades of work. The Bread & Puppet Theater has received National Endowment for the Arts grants.
