Bread and Puppet's The Christmas Story

Dec 20, 2024, 7 to 8 PM

Save the date! A revival of a Bread and Puppet show that was originally created in 1962, and performed every year at Christmas time.

From a 1967 New York Times review: "… a dramatization of the first Christmas that combined reverence and impudence exactly as they are combined in the medieval mystery plays. The scene is at once the holy land and super America; the time then, and now. Joseph and Mary sleep with the cows because they don't have $26.50 for an oasis size downstairs at the Sandy Arms motel. King Herod prates about the balance-of-payment deficit. The bubble-headed bourgeoisie of Jerusalem dismiss the star in the east as a publicity stunt for a new picture. The approach may seem campy or sacrilegious. It is neither."

Suggested donation $15, no one turned away for lack of $-- we mean it!
