The Happy Show is an immersive theatrical experience -- a choose-your-own-adventure full of whimsy, poetry, surprise, eccentricity and above all... happiness.
Why are we happy? What makes us happy? And how can we stay in this intangible state of being? Exploring these questions, Live Action Set installs its latest innovative theatrical experience throughout the nooks and crannies of the Bedlam Theatre. Audience members choose-their-own-adventure to follow a troupe of happy-makers performing the ancient Ritual of Happiness. The cast of actors, musicians, dancers, clowns, and bicyclists draw audience members into intimate pieces of theater throughout the Bedlam, immersing them in a show that is nearly impossible to experience the same way twice. The Happy Show features song, dance, sunsets, picnics, detailed explanations, lightening bugs, and if you are lucky an opera for two or an encounter with the king of all dogs.
