The Bread and Puppet Theater was founded in 1963 by Peter Schumann on New York City’s Lower East Side. Besides rod-puppet and hand puppet shows for children, the concerns of the fi rst productions were rents, rats, police, and other problems of the neighborhood. More complex theater pieces followed with many performances were done in the street. During the Vietnam War, Bread and puppet staged block-long processions and pageants involving hundreds of people. In 1974 Bread and Puppet moved to an old hay barn in Glover, Vermont where their anti-establishment theatre continued. This poster speaks against US intervention in El Salvador in the 1980s. Show more
