New York, February 1917: prices for basic food items rise dramatically. Unable and unwilling to pay prices that have skyrocketed, six ordinary women band together to enforce neighborhood boycotts that soon erupt into full-scale riots.
Mixing elements of realism with stylized movement, New York based theater ensemble, The Anthropologists, presents a vivid portrait of immigrant families in the tenements of the Lower East Side. Grounded in eyewitness accounts of the riots, Give Us Bread illuminates our contemporary global hunger crisis, through the lens of our not-too-distant past.
