An anti-clown car driven by puppeteer liz HOWLS and co-piloted by musician/lighting enthusiast Drew Simpson, Happy Accident 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 crap 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?”
“Happy Accident, Vol. 1” has been performed for over 4,000 people over two national tours to rooftops, venues, warehouses, backyards and art galleries across the country. A fan favorite at the 2025 New Orleans Giant Puppet Festival, “Vol. 1” has received high praise from audiences.
