Held on the Cambridge Common, near the intersection of Mass. Ave. and Garden St., Cambridge.
The award-winning Bread and Puppet Theater, from Vermont’s Northeast Kingdom, presents their Man = Carrot Circus on the Cambridge Common, a space they have not inhabited since the mid-1980’s. Bread and Puppet champions a visually rich slapstick style of street-theater that is filled with huge puppets made of paper maché and cardboard, along with masked characters, political commentary, and a lively brass band for accompaniment.
Man = Carrot Circus, for children of all ages, is based on the revelation that upright man rooted in dirt was created in the image of the upright carrot rooted in dirt. Fifteen Vermont puppeteers and musicians will enact the issues of the day, not only in how they affect carrots, but how they affect us all. Some of the circus acts may be politically puzzling to adults, but usually an accompanying kid can explain what’s going on.
