Abstract: This article examines Bread and Puppet Theater’s bread, its relationship to puppetry, its role at performances, and its place as an ideological engine for this institution's cultural work. In this essay I argue that Bread and Puppet Theater mobilizes bread in the same way they use puppets, as a narrative tool and as a symbol drawing upon personal and global cultural understandings of bread.
