Bread & Puppet Circus at Cambridge Common
Bread & Puppet Theater is performing for free its “The Upside-Down World Circus” on Sunday, September 6 at 5pm on Cambridge Common.
Vermont’s legendary Bread & Puppet Circus performs puppets big and small, acts serious and silly, and performances slapstick and sublime. Stilt dancers, paper mâché beasts, 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.
