Bread And Puppets

“It’s what you do, not what you say. It’s puppetry, not preaching.” -Peter Schumann

“We bring the starter for the dough everywhere we perform.” -Peter Schumann

There’s been a lot of recent press centered around theaters closing, cancelling seasons and/or laying off staff. A lot of bad news. Times are tough. No doubt, making art is hard. And as a commercial enterprise, it’s really, really freaking hard. Always will be.

But that shouldn’t stop you from making your art.

Because when you’re lit up by something, so much so that you just have to make it and share it with the world, nothing will stop you. And we’re all the beneficiaries of your passion, your striving for excellence, and your generosity of spirit.

We all get a seat at the table and a taste of your bread.

For some inspiration and fuel for your artistic journey, check out this phenomenal article on Peter Schumman’s Bread And Puppet Theater.
