“Happenstance Theater provokes titters, giggles, guffaws, chortles, snorts, and communal outbursts of from-the-belly laughter from an audience composed of longtime fans and brand-new admirers.” – DC Theater Arts

“A polished and seamless performance…The comedic timing in each skit is impeccable. These are performers who obviously enjoy what they do and pull out all the stops to connect with the audience.” – MD Theatre Guide

CABARET MACABRE

Happenstance Theater
Through November 12

Back by Popular Demand!

Happenstance Theater presents CABARET MACABRE. A perfect autumnal tradition, this witty Theatrical Collage is inspired by the illustrations of Edward Gorey, Victorian nightmares, musical histrionics, gothic romance, the perilous deep, calamitous excursions, and the dangers of croquet.

The Washington Post calls Happenstance Theater’s series of dark, comic vignettes “Wickedly funny…a Gorey illustration brought to life. It’s a feather that will tickle your fancy.”

“Cabaret Macabre gleams with the precision that has become Happenstance’s hallmark … ghoulishly gratifying...” – Washington City Paper
