Happy

Synopsis:
Happy, the newest creation from the Ronnie Burkett Theatre of Marionettes, introduces us to Happy, a "happy-go-lucky" veteran who wanders through episodes of grief in other people's lives. Tandem to the storyline presented by Happy is the "grief vaudeville" of Antoine Marionette, a campy, other-worldly master of ceremonies. Within this glittering silver realm--"the gray area of life"--arch presentations of sadness in song, pantomime, and burlesque, mirror and parody the state of the central characters.
