“Death and the Fool” by Happenstance Theater | June 25–26
PUTNEY, VT — The New Visions Summer Series at Sandglass Theater concludes with a lively theatrical romp when Happenstance Theater presents Death and the Fool | A Medieval Folly on Thursday and Friday, June 25 and 26 at 7pm.
Inspired by medieval mystery plays and tarot imagery, the production combines puppetry, slapstick comedy, live music, and physical theater in a whimsical exploration of mortality and folly.
As the Fool encounters a mysterious cast of characters—including the High Priestess, the Doctor, and the Crone—the audience is invited into a playful world where laughter offers relief from life’s darker questions.
Happenstance Theater is known for its inventive ensemble-driven productions that blend physical comedy, music, and puppetry. Death and the Fool evolved from the company’s earlier work Adrift: A Medieval Wayward Folly, originally created for the Maryland Renaissance Festival before being expanded into a touring production.
