Booklist- Founded in New York in 1963, Peter Schumann's Bread & Puppet Theatre has never achieved the renown of Jim Henson's Muppets. But Schumann's huge, expressionistic puppets, many of which tower over their operators, are instantly recognizable, and his performances have become so popular that he had to cancel the annual Domestic Resurrection Circus and Pageant in 1998, held on his Vermont farm, because the anticipated audiences were too large. He continues staging smaller public performances across the globe. Simon's gorgeous photographs capture the beauty of Schumann's work: the huge, sculpted heads and hands; the epic "stage" pictures created by dozens of puppets spread across a city- or landscape; the harmonious union of puppets and people, earth and sky. Sadly for theatrical scholars, none of the photos are dated or captioned, and the accompanying short essays by longtime Bread & Puppeteer Estrin are so subjective and self-consciously literary as to frustrate those looking for hard facts about the remarkable company. Grace Paley's enthusiastic foreword contains more information but is all too short.

Synopsis
Peter Schumann and his Bread & Puppet Theater are likely the most important, and surely the longest-lasting, contributors to modern American theater history. Since the early sixties Schumann and his puppeteers have been pouring out work after work on every scale: political works, mysterious works, grand works, modest works, works on the street and works in fields, works to be played in every size theater on four continents, books, prints, posters, and banners which live as show-and-tell in so many homes. Now Ron Simon and Marc Estrin, a remarkable photographer, and a long-time puppeteer, who have each in his own way contributed to the shows, recorded events, and reflected on them. Out of their experiences they have createdRehearsing with Gods: Photographs and Essays on the Bread & Puppet Theater. Far more than history or documentation, they identify eight archetypes engaged repeatedly by Peter Schumann and his crew. Their book consists of parallel meditations-the texts not commenting on the photos, the photos not illustrating the texts-unified and intertwined by the chapter themes of Death, Fiend, Beast, Human, World, Gift, Bread, and Hope. Altogether, it's a collaboration that reflects their sixty-odd man-years of personal experience in, hidden narratives of, and speculative reflections on Peter Schumann's projects, ever-more relevant to our times. This is a book that will engage both fans and newcomers-an inside-view of Peter Schumann's political-artistic world., Peter Schumann and his Bread & Puppet Theater are likely the most important, and surely the longest-lasting, contributors to modern American theater history.

- v***v (2075)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufAlthough this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.

- 2***j (113)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufI've ordered several items from this vendor now and they've always been what they were advertised as. This was no exception. Both discs were in great shape as well as their jewel cases. Delivery is good, packaging is simple but effective for what you're paying and I haven't had any get damaged. Will keep buying from this vendor because of the results so far and good prices, too.
