<font size=6>Bread & Puppet Comes to Amherst presenting<br>
<b>2006 World Insurrection Circus<br>
<br>
</b></font></div>
<i>The circus is coming to Amherst!</i> On Friday evening,
September 29, 2006, puppeteers from the world renowned Bread & Puppet
Theater will join with local community members to present the <b>2006
World Insurrection Circus</b> on the lawn behind Hampshire College’s Red
Barn (Rt. 116 in Amherst). The circus begins at 6:00pm and is free
and open to all community members. In case of rain or cold, the
circus will take place inside the Red Barn.<br>
<br>
The <b>2006 Edition of the World Insurrection Circus</b> -- featuring
giant puppets, stilt-walkers, choreographies of beautiful blue horses,
the explosive antics of the dancing bears, Pinky the FEMA elephant,
harmonic turkeys, the Rotten Idea Theater -- is an astute and
joyous distillation of political issues and much more, <i>all accompanied
by the B&P Circus Band!<br>
<br>
</i>The Bread & Puppet Theater is one of the oldest non-profit, self-
supporting theatrical companies in the U.S. The theater has been
enacting its radical utopian vision in cardboard and cloth for over forty
years, from the spectacle of its larger-than-life puppets at Vietnam War
protests in New York City to the pageantry of its long-running (over 25
years) annual event, “Our Domestic Resurrection Circus” in Glover,
Vermont.<br>
