When Happy's junkie brother Timmy is found dead, Happy returns to his old clown life to ask a few questions. But can he go home again without getting sucked into the seedy clown underbelly of vice and violence?

Step into The Box this summer and you’ll find yourself transported to Clown Bar
, a speakeasy style cabaret replete with clown mobsters, strippers, crooners, addicts, and one dashing square-jawed detective. Put on your red nose, throw back your shot of extra-funny, and get swept into this immersive who-done-it as bad-guy-gone-good Happy Mahoney confronts his past in a vengeful attempt to solve his beloved brother Timmy’s murder.

Written by Adam Szymkowicz
Music & Additional Lyrics by Adam Overett
Directed by Andrew Neisler
