WHAT COMES AFTER HAPPY
"...takes on the American pursuit of happiness head on through spot lit vignettes and sharply observed, often wickedly humorous character studies that could have been plucked out of a Broadway show..."InfiniteBody.commore press ›
what comes after happy cracks open our cultural obsession with happiness. More than almost any country, America is driven by the search for a state we consider "happy." As if happiness were a state of the Union rather than a state of being, we seem to be constantly mapping out the route towards a place, rather than experiencing the journey and taking in the states along the way. While other countries give deep value to the states of sadness, anger, passion and fear, we often whitewash our everyday lives to announce to the world and ourselves that we do not covet, that we are not filled with unrest, that we do not mourn. What comes after happy features 300 fortune cookies, an eclectic score and a ferocious physical vocabulary.
