Happenstance Theater (Mark Silva)

Happenstance Theater

Happenstance Theater is a professional company committed to creating and producing original, poetic theater with performer-created visuals. With the simplest means we seek to elevate the moment when the performers and audience meet, to lift the encounter beyond the daily and pedestrian into the realms of dreams, poetry, and art. Meaning is often found by happenstance. Since 2006, they have produced more than 10 shows, all to great acclaim. Prufbox, which premiered at the first Capital Fringe Festival, was remounted at the Smithsonian American Art Museum and the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, MA as part of their Joseph Cornell Exhibits.
