POCKET MOXIE: A Happenstance Vaudeville
POCKET MOXIE: A Happenstance Vaudeville! Back by Popular Demand!
POCKET MOXIE is a light-hearted homage to the style and spirit of the Great Age of Vaudeville - an immensely popular theatre from the late 19th and early 20th Centuries made up of specialty acts, song and dance.
“POCKET MOXIE transported me to a time of song, dance, puppets, slapstick, and enough corny jokes to make my head pop … a true celebration of character, comedy, and the beautiful creation of storytelling.”
– Kateri Pelton, MD Theatre Guide
“There is awe, wonder, humor, and sheer happiness to be had.”
– Amanda Gunther, TheatreBloom
Happenstance Theater's five versatile players breathe new life into classic old routines from a ventriloquist’s dummy to a magic act that goes awry, from novelty songs and a musical saw to waiters juggling meatballs, all with full live “foley” sound effects.
This show is teeming with hijinks, harmonies, nostalgic beauty and physical comedy. Something for everyone and family friendly!
Happenstance Theater brings old Vaudeville back!

Washington City Paper says, “Happenstance Theater’s ensemble comedy is a gut-busting kind of funny.” Talkin’Broadway says, "The members of Happenstance Theater are so adept at what they do that they turn tomfoolery into an art form” and The Washington Post calls Happenstance “DC’s leading peddler of whimsy.”
