A comedy based on the play by Murray Schizgall "LUV".

The title “Happiness is” does not use a punctuation mark, because it is an eternal topic that has been debated for more than a century, so this question or statement is something everyone decides for himself.

“Laughter through tears” is the most accurate description of the emotional atmosphere of the performance! The heroes of the production are ordinary people who are terribly afraid of loneliness. They want to be heard, meaningful and therefore rush from one extreme to the other: from limitless happiness to absurd sadness, from love delight, to disappointment in this feeling.

Under strange circumstances, two school friends meet: the successful Mike and the absolute loser Henry. Mike, in order to save a friend from despair, offers to introduce him to his wife, since he himself has long been hungry for a divorce. An ordinary, at first glance, love triangle turns into a swirling story of a real struggle for love.

Everything that happens on stage is aggravated to such an extent that sometimes it makes one doubt the adequacy of the characters. This is a funny and colorful production that will make you relax, laugh and take a look from the side on the eternal themes of “love” and “seeking happiness”.

Love for life, love for a dream, love for one's neighbor, love for oneself - a feeling that will be present with the audience and the characters throughout the performance.
