#BostonWeekend 17x 4pm Sat PUPPETS x PROTEST - Bread and Puppet theatre, 4pm in #CambridgeMA Bread & Puppet Theater presents "Our Domestic Resurrection Revolution in Progress Circus" outdoors on #CambridgeCommon on Saturday, Sept. 13, 2025, at 4 p.m. in partnership with Cambridge Arts. Admission free--donations encouraged.

"We are joined by Palestinian peace cranes on their way to Washington," the theater says, "green frogs who teach the art of hopping over seemingly insurmountable problems, and gaggles of kindergarten butterflies who frolic to their hearts’ desire. Join us for a serious and silly circus."

This circus is a brand new show in the tradition of the iconic Bread & Puppet Circuses that began at Goddard College in Plainfield, Vermont, in 1970. As usual, the show will draw on traditional circus tropes and familiar #BreadAndPuppet iconography to draw attention to the urgent issues of the day. Stilt dancers, papier-maché beasts of all sizes and a riotous #brass band make a raucous, colorful spectacle of protest and celebration.

After the show Bread & Puppet will serve its famous sourdough rye #bread with aioli, and Bread & #Puppet’s “Cheap Art” – books, posters, postcards, pamphlets and banners from the Bread & Puppet Press – will be for sale.
