I first saw Bread and Puppet Theater in the basement of the Washington Square Methodist Church in NYC. The Vietnam War was at it’s height. The performance was nearly silent, but it was the strongest anti-war statement I had encountered.  Sometimes they appear without warning. For ‘Mr. Bhutto’s Letter’1 they performed at the Mass College of Art.

This week: All week; free art exhibit.

Monday January 25 free artist talk and reception 6-8PM

Evening Adult Shows “Tear Open the Door of Heaven” Jan . 28-31 Thurs.-Sun. 7 PM Advance tix2

Family Friendly “Dirt Cheap Money Circus” Matinees Jan 30-31, Sat. & Sun.  4PM  Advance Tix

All right! None of you made the Artist Reception. I know cuz I took attendance. My bad, not enough warning. You’re all plan your life types. So here are some pictures.
