Bread & Puppet Theater presents Cardboard Celebration Circus

May 22, 23 & 24, 2009
RLT Outdoor Stephenson Amphitheatre (General Admission Seating)

A big brass band, papier-maché and slapstick! The creations of puppet master Peter Schumann are spectacular characters of all kinds and sizes, animating masks and inhabiting landscapes from the four corners of the world. The Bread and Puppet Theater is one of the oldest nonprofit, self-supporting theatrical companies in the country. Schumann founded Bread and Puppet in 1962 on New York City’s Lower East Side. The Theater is now an internationally recognized company that champions a visually rich, street-theater brand of performance art. Visit the concessions area or bring your own picnic for a fun family outing in the outdoor amphitheatre located adjacent to the rose garden on the Raleigh Little Theatre Complex.

Attending a performance in the Amphitheatre

You are welcome to bring your own dinner, however since the amphitheatre is part of a City of Raleigh park, please adhere to these rules:

• No coolers allowed
• No glass bottles allowed
• Only beer and wine purchased from our vendor may be brought into the amphitheatre.

Bringing blankets or chairs makes seating more comfortable. Lawnchairs or the folding chairs that come in a bag work well. There is grass between the concrete benches and chairs fit well in that space.

Food coupons

To make the sales easier for our volunteers in the Food Court, we use a food coupon system. Please purchase coupons at the tent in the parking lot before getting your food or drinks.

Vendors and concessions workers cannot take cash, only the coupons. Each coupon = $1.
