WILD PINK is a group show about the natural and cultural relationship of the ancient color PINK. There is certainly no dearth of pink in the natural world or in human culture. We accessorize, cosmeticize, gender-ize and interiorize to the point of being ‘tickled pink’. In the animal and floral world pink as hue and shade exists multifold. Whether to shock, protest or code the millennials, pink has survived the test of time. This show examines the fluid origins of PINK in ‘natural’ and/or ‘cultural’ contexts. This is open media, interdisciplinary, multimedia, installation, all contemporary crafts and design arts in two/three dimensions for the wall and floor.
Reception & Artist talks: Sept. 26th, 5-7pm

Part murder mystery and part psychological thriller, this play is brimming with intrigue, sophisticated humor and surprising twists. After a local woman is murdered, the guests and staff at Monkswell Manor find themselves stranded during a snowstorm. A police detective (Ray Merrill, Montpelier) arriving on skis, interrogates the suspects: the newlyweds running the house (Sarah McDougal, Warren, and Wes Olds, Graniteville); a spinster with a curious background (Karin Stevenson, Essex); an architect who seems better equipped to be a chef (Paul Cavaliere, Montpelier); a retired Army major (Brent Adams, Warren); a strange man who claims his car has overturned in a drift (Aric Brown, Middlesex); and a former judge who makes life miserable for everyone (Marci Robinson, Warren). It soon becomes clear that the killer is among them, and the seven strangers grow increasingly suspicious of one another. When a second murder takes place, tensions and fears escalate.
The play is directed by Ruth Ann Pattee (Fayston) with assistance from Stage Manager Joanne Puente (Worchester). Set design is also by Pattee, with Doug Bergstein (Waitsfield) as set build crew chief. The lighting and sound design is by Jasper Mayone (Waitsfield) with assistance from Irene Halibozek (Williston).

Bread and Puppet presents: Grey Lady Cantata #9
2024-10-06 14:00 | Bread and Puppet Theater, 753 Heights Rd, Montreal, Vermont, Glover, United States
Bread & Puppet welcomes the public to our Annual Political Leaf Peeping, where we will celebrate the glorious fall landscape and the completion of another summer season with an afternoon of music, puppet shows and potato pancakes. The event will take place Sunday, October 6th at the Bread & Puppet farm in Glover, VT.
The program begins at 2 pm and will include Sacred Harp singing and the opening of the autumnal landscape for political viewing. Bread and Puppeteers of the past and present will regale you with cantastorias, songs and puppet shows performed around the property. At 3pm the company will then perform a brand new show, Gray Lady Cantata #9 directed by Peter Schumann. The Museum of Anti-Modern Art will also be open for viewing of Schumann’s latest painting series. Finally, the afternoon will conclude with the serving of the traditional political leaf peeper’s dinner: potato pancakes with fresh applesauce.
About Gray Lady Cantata #9: In the late 60’s through the mid 1970’s, Peter Schumann created a series of shows in response to the Vietnam war called “The Gray Lady Cantatas”. The shows featured the iconic gray lady puppets moving through vignettes both dreamlike and brutal. This new version, Gray Lady Cantata #9, directed by Peter Schumann, uses texts from Palestinians living through the war in Gaza, and, like the older versions of the show, is a meditation on grief, war, and resistance.
The Bread & Puppet Museum—showcasing one of the largest collections of giant puppets in the world—and the Museum Store—featuring a selection of new and old posters, books, and banners from the Bread & Puppet Press—will be open throughout the afternoon.
Tickets are $10 each. Each ticket provides access to all performances happening during the day. We ask that you purchase tickets ahead of time. However, it’s central to our philosophy that our performances are as accessible as possible and no one will be turned away for lack of funds. Admission by cash donation for kids 6 and under. You can purchase tickets on our website at: https://breadandpuppet.org/book-tickets-for-upcoming-shows
Gray Lady Cantata #9 plays Sunday October 6th at 3 p.m. at the Bread & Puppet Farm, 753 Heights Rd/Rt. 122 in Glover, VT.
