Wow! The Bread and Puppet Circus from Vermont performed at Northlight. It was a last-minute booking, but we managed to scare up a packed house—literally overnight. They put on a great show with a brass band, cloth horses, burlap donkeys, paper tigers (of course), tap-dancing frogs, mysterious puppet characters, sharp-pointed politics, singing, dancing, and an amazing energy level throughout. It was craft in motion and the crowd loved it. And here's some video of the performance from Mark Boyd (Photos: Robin Dreyer)
