Bread & Puppet Theater

"The Decapitalization Circus"

The Decapitalization Circus demonstrates in numerous death-defying stunts the
phantastic effects of the capitalization of life in the U.S. and citizens'
courageous efforts of decapitalization. The performers represent the whole
scale of the social spectrum from benign billionairism to despicable homeless
anti-social-elementarianism. All the acts are FDA and FBI certified displays
of patriotic correctness and defy all imaginable forms of terrorism. The
Possibilitarians, a multi-instrumental variety ensemble, provide the
appropriate-inappropriate sounds for the circus.

ABOUT BREAD & PUPPET THEATER

The Bread & Puppet Theater is one of the oldest non-profit, self-supporting
theatrical companies in the U.S. The theater has been enacting its radical
utopian vision in cardboard and cloth for over forty years, from the
spectacle of its larger-than-life puppets at Vietnam War protests in New York
City to the pageantry of its long-running (over 25 years) annual event, "Our
Domestic Resurrection Circus" in Glover, Vermont. The latter event regularly
attracted audiences in the tens of thousands up to the late 1990's. Author
and NPR commentator Andrei Codrescu has praised "the genius of Peter Schumann
[artistic director], the prodigious puppet-God," writing "the Bread & Puppet
Theater has been so long a part of America's conscious struggle for our
better selves, that it has become, paradoxically, a fixture of our
subconscious."
