Bread + Puppet Spring 2025 Tour: The Obligation to Live

Of our latest show, The Obligation to Live, director Peter Schumann reminds us that, “The obligation to be alive and act against the actors of death is just one of humanity’s many obligations. We also have the obligation to courage and the obligation to plant garlic in the rubble of the empire. Possibilitarians know this and bring giants, dragons, horses, sheep, butterflies, and the exact dance of death required for this exact moment.”

Bread + Puppet: The Possibilitarian Imperative Everything Show & Gray Lady Cantata #9

The word “possibiltarian” is a Marc Estrin translation of Robert Musil’s term “möglichkeitsmensch” from his novel The Man Without Qualities, about the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The term was invigorated by Margaret Thatcher’s remark on capitalism: “there is no alternative,” to which we respond: “there are a thousand alternatives!”

Pipeline Playwrights presents: Heartland by Patricia Connelly VIRTUAL

In this drama, a young lawyer struggles to decide whether to continue with the biggest case of her career or whether to walk away. Playwright and lawyer Pat Connelly says the play was inspired by the Supreme Court case involving the Westboro Church of Kansas. “I began to think about attorneys called upon to represent clients whose conduct and beliefs they find abhorrent, who must find a way to vigorously represent those clients.” These thoughts led her to create the world of Heartland, a compelling courtroom drama about the limits of free speech and family ties that bind. Directed by Catherine Tripp featuring Sally Imbriano, David Johnson, Rebecca Kiser, Lenny Mendez, Nicole Ruthmarie, & Eamon Patrick Walsh.
