Happy Accident explores the exponential pace of overwhelming absurdity in our world. Found objects, large scale puppets, and sputtering lights bring you face to face with the cuddly nightmare that is everyday life. An anti-clown car driven by master puppeteer Liz HOWLS and co-piloted by musician/unlicensed electrician Servant Baby, this unique production ecstatically careens down the wrong side of the lost highway, leaving a trail of old copies of Weekly World News and Jack in the Box wrappers in its wake. Colorfully reimagining Saturday mornings spent drooling over piles of synthetic material in front of the TV, Happy Accident revels in naked, antipathetic Americana. You will probably laugh, you might cry, and like other designer drugs, you will want more within minutes. Ultimately, you will ask yourself, “What kind of culture would produce something like this?”
