  Show Business Weekly: Review: Bread & Circus 3099   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Bread and Circus takes off from there to follow the standard dystopian trajectory, in which our heroes long for "something more," rebel, and then lose themselves in a painfully brief interlude of bliss while the audience awaits the consequences.
The ending of Bread and Circus may not be as dramatic as it is supposed to be because the Aggregate is not especially intimidating.
The difference between Bread and masterpieces of the dystopian genre is that Bread and Circus does not convincingly establish government omnipotence.

 Ariga: Bread and circus Monday, September 20, 2004
The rocket presumably was another round in the tit for tat retaliations into which Israel and the Palestinians have long since settled: Last night, a ‘senior’ Hamas man, said said to be involved in Qassam attacks, was killed by soldiers in Gaza, so this morning, a Qassam was launched at Sderot.
But that annoying exchange was buried under two other ‘bread and circus’ stories.
The bread story was an announcement last night that Finance Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and Interior Minister Avraham Poraz agreed to set aside NIS 250 million to pay the salaries of some 20,000 Israeli municipal workers who have not been paid in months, and in some cases, for more than a year.

 BREAD & CIRCUS 3099   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
With BREAD and CIRCUS 3099 Jack Shamblin and Nicole Zaray have created an absurdist, ridiculous play that asks the question, "What will rebellion be in the Biological Age?" Their answer is a high-tech "canned adventure" in which a couple of boring old clones chase the "irregular girl" through the "forbidden world" of 3099.
It mocks and mimics the concepts of human cloning and making all things "corporate." Written in a character-driven, intelligent, farcical style, it is flavored with clever use of multiple video projections and song.
In a commentary about the Bread and Circus 3099 work and progress at New York's Dixon Place, Ana Paula Chrispiniano of MTV Brazil wrote, "'Bread and Circus 3099' is a delicious surprise!

 Bread & Circus vs. Harvest Co-op Markets   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Maybe it should read: "We believe in posing as a super-green 'friend of the planet' and in calling our wage slaves 'team members,' etc. But at the end of the day we'll euchre our competitors just like anybody else - even if they are the kind of small-scale, nonprofit cooperatives we claim to adore."
