Description:
Radford University’s College of Visual and Performing Arts is proud to present Vermont-based Bread and Puppet Theater performing “The Grasshopper Rebellion Circus” on Tuesday, December 4, 2018 in the Radford University Student Recreation and Wellness Center.

The Grasshopper Rebellion Circus is a self-proclaimed celebration of 6,000 years of revolution against human management. The performance will feature incredible puppetry with a wild variety of creatures and characters, accompanied by music from the Bread and Puppet Circus Band.

Bread and Puppet Theater is based out of Glover, Vermont, and has been around since the early 1960s. They are well known for their unique puppetry and activist themes within their performances. Many of the puppets and masks used in their shows are sculpted in clay and covered in paper mâché, with some standing over 20 feet tall.

Due to the size and scope of Bread and Puppet Theater performances, many of their events happen at outdoor venues. Radford University will hold the early December event in the Student Recreation and Wellness Center to accommodate the need for a large, open space, while also providing an environment protected from winter weather.

The event is free and open to the public.
