The all-day Vermont Shape Note sing was at the Glover town Hall this year! Many puppeteers, ex puppeteers and friends of the theater were there. Shape note songs have been a part of Bread and Puppet since the early 1970s and our friend and neighbor Judy Carpenter did a beautiful job collecting and displaying photos, stories, and memorabilia about the origins of that relationship. Thanks to Judy, Joanie, Kate, Icarus, Hayley, Ziggy and all the others who did the organizational work for putting on this beautiful event!

Bread and Puppet director Peter Schumann with his grandson, Ira Karp, a director in the making!

Ira’s show, “Greenwood: the Musical” will be going on a mini tour this week! Its both a goofy and oddly beautiful show, based on Ira’s rich inner world, performed by him and a group of seasoned Bread and puppeteers. Come and see it if you can— this show is a healing balm for these dark times, a show filled with laughter, joy, and delight in the details of everyday human interaction.

Thursday, April 23, 7pm @ Time and Space Limited, Hudson, NY
