We are thrilled to announce Bread and Puppet will return to Frenchtown for two performances of Ophelia before Ecstatic Decrepitude’s closing this month.
Ophelia, not an attachment to Hamlet, but the center around which all other elements spin, death, ghost, king, and population, all of them puppets, cardboard giants or dwarves. Only Ophelia is real: a teenager with Down syndrome called Ira Karp. Ira Karp is Peter Schumann’s grandson, and is a frequent collaborator and performer with the Bread and Puppet Theater.
The show is expected to run for about 60 to 90 minutes, with no intermission.
Get tickets here.
