Modern Times Theater pursues a radically divergent model of art making, creating venues in unlikely locations, and revitalizing the historic, run-down, and defunct. Working in populist theater forms, they seek to reinvent and reimagine classic American entertainment. To this end, they have been adapting and updating Punch and Judy puppet shows, creating new works of puppetry, creating variety acts, and writing original novelty songs for over a decade.
Co-founders Rose Friedman and Justin Lander are a husband and wife duo, producers for Vermont Vaudeville and alumni of the Bread and Puppet Theater.
