A BREAD FACTORY
Director: Patrick Wang
Country/Distributor: USA, In the Family LLC
Opened: October 26
A cash-strapped community theater director summons a lovelorn young man onstage, and, finding a creative outlet for his pain and attesting to the need for spaces where art can flourish without commercial hooks. In Patrick Wang’s deceptively tranquil, flawlessly acted, formally subversive a converted bakery that’s brought performances to a small hamlet in upstate New York for 40 years now clings precariously to public funding.
